Introduction to Practical Railway Engineering
April 13-15, 2015 • Las Vegas, NV
Do you have limited exposure to the Railway Industry?
Are you a railroader in a highly specialized position?
If you answered “YES” to either of these questions, this is the seminar for YOU!
Our experience has shown that typical participants benefiting the most from this
course are those with limited exposure to the railway industry or railroaders with
highly specialized positions not directly involved with design or maintenance.
YES!
Benefits
• Contact with other railroad professionals through our low student/instructor ratio.
• Participants will gain a greater appreciation for the technical and not-so-technical aspects of railroad engineering and operations.
• Registration fee includes a workbook containing printed copies of the presentation and a digital copy of the Practical Guide to
Railway Engineering© ($175 value); an 800-page text published by AREMA.
