Will You Help on National Train Day May 10?

NOTE: Information about the day’s schedule is posted on the Event post.
Dear RailPAC members and friends,
Amtrak is sponsoring National Train Day on May 10. This is a great opportunity to spread the word about RailPAC and the need for more passenger rail service.

There will be events around the state both big and small, the major Amtrak event will be at Los Angeles Union Station. This is supposed to also be the launch day of the revamped Coast Starlight.

I am looking for volunteers to hand out RailPAC Reviews and membership information, either at your local station or one of the larger events. Please reply to pdyson@xg1.b3e.myftpupload.com with the following:

Name
Local station (s)
Willingness to travel to another location (e.g. LAUS, Fresno, Sacramento)
Hours available.
Any ideas for events that you could stage.

An “event” can be as simple as one individual handing out RailPAC info to train passengers at your local depot, or you can come and help at LA, or one of the larger stations. We’ll supply all the materials.

Please respond asap, and keep looking at RailPAC.org as we develop our plans.
Thanks,
Paul Dyson
President, Rail Passenger Association of California
