Lucrecia Colix of the Search Commission for Missing Hondurans walks with a photo of her daughter along the railroad tracks in Arriaga, Chiapas carrying the traditional flowers (cempasuchil) en route to the city cemetary on the Day of the Dead to remember migrants who have died or are missing while making the dangerous journey by freight train through Mexico. The group of Honduran women were on a trip through Mexico to raise awareness of the perils of the journey, visiting towns along the railroad line that the migrants use to travel to the US border.
