Railroad Workers United (RWU) adopted a new Resolution in response to confusion over “high speed rail” and what the best way is to move forward with railroad improvement and development. RWU has staked out a position they feel makes sense, and one that serves railroad workers, the traveling public, shippers, trackside communities, and the nation as a whole.
While RWU may support certain “high speed rail” projects, they emphasize the importance of making better use of the existing rail network through improvements, upgrades, and infrastructural development. Please click on this link to read RWU’s recent Resolution.
