Rail Passengers Association members get a special discounted registration rate for the 21st Annual Southwestern Rail Conference, April 7-8, in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex.
Presentations are already scheduled from Rail Passengers Association President/CEO Jim Mathews, the Texas Department of Transportation, Transportation for America, a Texas Transit Panel, with more to follow. This conference is a unique blend of both important passenger and freight rail issues of the day.
The normal EARLY BIRD registration fee for the two-day all-rail event is $349, but we have made a limited number of reduced registrations for Rail Passengers Association members at $199. This includes meals and access to all presentations.
To obtain the reduced $199.00 registration which includes meals, you must enter "RPA" in the Registration Code field and press enter. The reduced price will not show once the block of registrations is reached.
The conference hotel is the Hilton Garden Inn, which is attached to the Hurst Conference Center. A special rate of $124 a night is available until the room block is filled.

"Thank you to Jim Mathews and the Rail Passengers Association for presenting me with this prestigious award. I am always looking at ways to work with the railroads and rail advocates to improve the passenger experience."
