Strong Ties Through Hard Truths

Who Are The "Rail Families" That Should View This Information?

1. Frontline Rail Workers and their loved ones

2. Rail Investors (i.e., pension funds, large equity firms, individuals, etc.)

3. Rail Customers (i.e., commuters, agricultural, automotive, chemical, forest products, heavy equipment, mining, oil/energy, retail, shipping/international freight, steel, etc.)

4. Regulators in both Canada and the U.S. (i.e., Transport Canada – TC, Transportation Safety Board – TSB, Canadian Transportation Agency – CTA, National Transportation Safety Board – NTSB, Federal Railway Administration – FRA, Surface Transportation Board – STB), etc. 

 

5. Rail Unions in Both Canada and the US including Teamsters Canada Rail Conference (TCRC), Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen (BLE-T), Smart TD (Conductors’ union), Brotherhood of Maintenance of Way Employees (BMWED), Brotherhood of Railroad Signalmen (BRS), United Steel Workers (USW – rail bridge repair), Railroad Workers United (RWU), and several other rail unions too numerous to mention all here

6. The Railway Association of Canada (RAC) and The Association of American Railroads (AAR)

7. Rail Safety Advocates

8. Taxpayers/General Public/ News Agencies

9. Rail Fans (“foamers”), etc.

NOTE: UNFORTUNATELY (IN MY VERY STRONG OPINION), NOT ALL "RAIL FAMILIES" HAVE THE BEST INTEREST OF FRONTLINE RAIL WORKERS AS THEIR PRIMARY CONCERN AND AS SUCH, ONLY THOSE THAT DO WILL BE CONSIDERED PART OF THE "RAIL FAMILIES UNITED" GROUP.
