RailNation:DC 2020 - Hotel Reservations
Important Note: We are RESCHEDULING our Advocacy Summit to late June due to coronavirus concerns. The Embassy Suites has agreed to honor our original discounted rates and will once again make the room block available to our attendees.
YOU WILL NEED TO RE-REGISTER FOR YOUR HOTEL STAY. Check this page often, because we are waiting for the Embassy Suites to provide us the new registration link. Once we have that link, we will put it on this page so that you can register for our discounted room block. Please be patient as we work to manage this very rapidly changing situation.

"On behalf of Amtrak’s onboard service staff, I want to thank the Rail Passengers Association for honoring their hard work with this award. The past couple years have indeed been difficult for Amtrak onboard service staff – coping with furloughs and job insecurity, adapting to changing protocols and services, not to mention the unfortunate events such as a tragic derailment and a fatal shooting. Nevertheless, our dedicated members at Amtrak have handled these hurdles with the care, attention and diligence for which they’re known. We thank Rail Passengers for their acknowledgement of our members’ hard work and, as always, look forward to seeing you on the rails."
