Looking at TFM’s Paint Scheme, I’m wondering if KCS had influence over it before they bought it. Their paint schemes look very similer.
KCS had an approx 37% ownership in TFM since they privatized, hence the influence you mention. Groupo TMM (aka Pepe Serano) owned another significant part and the govt retained approx 25%. The KCS then recently bought the Groupo TMM portion, giving them majority control.
