The National Railroad Construction and Maintenance Association (NRC) recognized exemplary contractors as recipients of its 2025 “Safe Contractor of the Year” awards on January 8, 2026, at its annual conference in Hollywood, Florida. Fifty-eight winning contractors earned platinum, gold, silver, or bronze awards for their safety performance during the prior year.
The NRC is making it easy for award winners to share this important recognition with others by featuring a special graphic that you can feature in your email signature, on social media, on your company’s website, or in bid proposals.
Simply go to the conference media kit page on our website and scroll down to find the appropriate graphic for your company: platinum, gold, silver or bronze. Download the graphic and post it in your electronic and print communications to start getting the positive acknowledgment your company and its employees deserve.
Receiving the NRC scholarship has been an invaluable vote of confidence, propelling me forward in my academic journey with renewed determination. Thanks to the scholarship's support, I've been able to dedicate more time to my studies and specialized university programs, unlocking opportunities I once thought beyond reach. The scholarship has truly broadened my horizons! I am deeply grateful for the NRC's generosity and proud to be counted among its recipients.
