Read the monthly column by the NRC Chairman for insights on the state of the association and the railway construction and maintenance industry.
The NRC publishes The Bulletin newsletter for members and other industry professionals. It features the latest news on the NRC, the industry and other developments related to railway construction and maintenance contractors and suppliers.
The NRC Education Grant program gave us the flexibility to fund graduate students engaged in developing railway-themed youth outreach activities, and documenting these activities to share with others. Thanks to the support from NRC, railway museums and kindergarten-through-grade 12 (K-12) educators have a new tool for attracting a diverse new generation of railway engineering and construction professionals, including traditionally under-represented groups.
