The PROGRESS IN MOTION Rail Forum is an ideal venue for planners, elected officials, economic developers, and business and industry representatives to join a discussion of issues impacting rail, and rail’s contribution to North Carolina’s transportation system and economy. The North Carolina Railroad Company invites you to be a part of the dialogue and help maximize the state’s rail assets through an exchange of ideas and information.
