Join us at the Fifth Annual summit as we meet with leaders in the passenger rail industry for discussions regarding the modernization and integration of passenger rail service in California. Since the inaugural Summit in April 2013, transportation agencies at the federal, state, and regional levels have invested billions of dollars to improve California's high-speed, commuter and intercity passenger rail services.
The program for the 2017 Summit promises to be the best yet. You will hear from experts on the status of safety initiatives, delivery and viewing of new state-of-the-art rail vehicles, and status transformative projects on the state's passenger rail network.

"I wish to extend my appreciation to members of the Rail Passengers Association for their steadfast advocacy to protect not only the Southwest Chief, but all rail transportation which plays such an important role in our economy and local communities. I look forward to continuing this close partnership, both with America’s rail passengers and our bipartisan group of senators, to ensure a bright future for the Southwest Chief route."
