Un coche de pasajeros debe cumplir ciertos requisitos de seguridad y comodidad para los ocupantes. En México los hubo de diferentes clases: Primera, Primera combinada, Segunda, Dormitorio, Comedor, Observatorio, Express, Correo, además de otros carros que se utilizaron para otras necesidades.
Las letras que se designaron para el equipo general de pasajeros son las sıguientes: P. A., para carros de pasajeros, P. B. para carros con asientos comunes o reclinables; P. O., para carro observatorio; P. S. para coche dormitorio; P. V., para coche privado usado por oficiales, particulares y pagadores de ferrocarril, y D, para los coches comedores. A fin de ofrecer un mejor servicio a los pasajeros, Ferrocarriles
Nacionales de México creó la Gerencia de Tráfico de Pasajeros, la cual tenía como responsabilidad, entre otras, la misión de aumentar el trafico de pasajeros y, como consecuencia, los ingresos de la empresa. Para lograr el objetivo, esta Gerencia tenía que fijar cuotas remunerativas, pero que al mismo tiempo fueran atractivas, a los servicios que otorgaba la empresa, y debía crear una publicidad adecuada y convincente que incentivara la afluencia de personas. También era de su competencia dictar algunas disposiciones a fin de
brindar comodidad
a los pasajeros en las estaciones y a bordo de los trenes, e intervenía en la discusión de todos los horarios de los trenes de pasajeros para que se adaptaran a las necesidades del tráfico nacional e internacional, sobre todo en lo que se refería a las conexiones con otros trenes.

A passenger car must meet certain safety and comfort requirements for the occupants. In Mexico there were different classes: First, First Combined, Second, Sleeper, Dining room, Observatory, Express, Mail, in addition to other cars that were used for other needs.
The letters designated for the general passenger cars were the following: P. A., for passenger cars, P. B. for cars with common or reclining seats; P. O., for observatory cars; P. S. for sleeping cars; P. V., for private cars used by officers, individuals and railway payers, and D, for dining cars. In order to offer a better service to passengers, Mexican National Railroads created the Passenger Traffic Management Office, which was responsible, among other tasks, for the mission of increasing passenger traffic and, as a consequence,
the company's revenues. To achieve the objective, this office had to set profitable ticket prices that at the same time were attractive to the public. It also had to create adequate and convincing publicity that would stimulate railroad travel. It was also within its competence to dictate some provisions in order to provide comfort to passengers at stations and while onboard trains, and to intervene in the discussion of the schedules of passenger trains so that they were adapted to the needs of national and international traffic, especially in regard to the connections with other trains.Builder: Pullman Mfg.
