The NM Section of the Southwest Chief Coalition will be hosting an event in partnership with the Lamy Station & SFS Railway Lamy. We will be here for about 90 mins and on hand to answer any questions regarding the Southwest Chief. We will be finalizing our agenda in the coming weeks as we prepare to attend the Passenger Rail Summit in Topeka a few days after.
We invite any special government leaders and or business people to be on hand to have any questions answered about the recent Southwest Chief issue which Amtrak, and the NMDOT have been silent in trying to inform the residents of Lamy and surrounding residents.
We will be meeting at the Amtrak station.
"On behalf of Amtrak’s onboard service staff, I want to thank the Rail Passengers Association for honoring their hard work with this award. The past couple years have indeed been difficult for Amtrak onboard service staff – coping with furloughs and job insecurity, adapting to changing protocols and services, not to mention the unfortunate events such as a tragic derailment and a fatal shooting. Nevertheless, our dedicated members at Amtrak have handled these hurdles with the care, attention and diligence for which they’re known. We thank Rail Passengers for their acknowledgement of our members’ hard work and, as always, look forward to seeing you on the rails."
