RailNation:DC 2020 - Hotel Reservations
Important Note: We are RESCHEDULING our Advocacy Summit to late June due to coronavirus concerns. The Embassy Suites has agreed to honor our original discounted rates and will once again make the room block available to our attendees.
YOU WILL NEED TO RE-REGISTER FOR YOUR HOTEL STAY. Check this page often, because we are waiting for the Embassy Suites to provide us the new registration link. Once we have that link, we will put it on this page so that you can register for our discounted room block. Please be patient as we work to manage this very rapidly changing situation.

"The COVID Pandemic has been and continues to be the biggest challenge faced by Americans as it has taken a deadly toll on the world and on the world’s economies. During COVID Locomotive Engineers at Amtrak and other Passenger and Freight Railroads have embodied the definition of essential workers. This dedication by our members is not new. We applaud the Rail Passenger’s Association for recognizing the vital contributions of our members and their hard work moving Americans and freight during the COVID pandemic."
