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.

"The National Association of Railroad Passengers has done yeoman work over the years and in fact if it weren’t for NARP, I'd be surprised if Amtrak were still in possession of as a large a network as they have. So they've done good work, they're very good on the factual case."
