Railroad members, please remember that crew size paperwork is due to the Federal Railroad Administration on Sept. 6. Affected railroads will need to submit a notification and copy of certain operating rules. The FRA published a compliance guide (https://ow.ly/iPIU50T4bm4) and we have resources on our website for members (https://ow.ly/vPAq50T4bm7) plus a recorded webinar (https://ow.ly/KlM550T4bm6).

It's the end of the work day and if you're heading home to your doggone best furry bud, be sure to wish him or her a Happy National Dog Day! Freight railroads ship your dog's favorite food, toys and supplies, while our tourist railroad members often host dog-friendly events. We're sure our hard-working railroaders deserve two paws up from your pup!
