All Aboard Washington regrets that these two upcoming events have been postponed for the protection of our guests and speakers:
Central Washington Passenger Rail Summit, Yakima, March 14
Rail Passengers NW Meeting, Tacoma, April 18
We have been monitoring the coronavirus / COVID-19 situation closely. Governor Inslee has instituted a temporary ban on events such as these, and many employers are prohibiting their employees from traveling. As a result, many of the scheduled speakers will be unable to attend on the original dates.
We will update you with information about when the meetings will be rescheduled. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.

"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."
Senator Jerry Moran (R-KS)
