RSI and its members hosted a rail supplier technology event on Capitol Hill designed to focus on rail technology, the regulatory environment, and the economic contributions made by the rail supply industry.
The event provided an opportunity to educate stakeholders with hands-on experience with railroad technology while discussing how industry and government can better facilitate and progress innovation.
Stay tuned for more information about the 2026 event, and a 2025 Recap.
