Product Information:
In 2022, a 60’ boxcar was decorated by GATX as the centerpiece for the “Save the Monarch Butterfly - 60,000 Tree Challenge” North American boxcar tour. Kansas City Southern, Canadian Pacific, GATX and several other organizations collaborated to create the campaign. The annual migratory journey of the Monarch Butterfly is a long one - from the Windsor, Canada area, through the United States, and ends near Monterrey in Michoacán State of Mexico.
This boxcar tour paralleled this migratory path of these amazing pollinators to raise $100,000 to help reestablish the still-threatened Monarch population, by planting 60,000 oyamel trees at El Rosario Monarch Butterfly Sanctuary in Michoacán, Mexico.
