关于我们
America's freight railroads operate the safest, most efficient, cost-effective and environmentally sound freight transportation system in the world — and at the Association of American Railroads (AAR) we are committed to keeping it that way. Operating over a private, 140,000 mile network stretching across the far reaches of North America, AAR members include the major freight railroads in the United States, Canada and Mexico, as well as Amtrak. Working with elected officials and leaders in Washington, D.C. on critical transportation and related issues, AAR ensures that the freight rail industry will continue to meet America’s transportation needs today and tomorrow. As the standard setting organization for North America's railroads, AAR is also focused on improving the safety and productivity of rail transportation. AAR helps advance these goals through its two subsidiaries, the Transportation Technology Center Inc.(TTCI) and the Railinc Corp. TTCI is the world's leading research, development and testing facility, and develops next-generation advancements in safety and operation efficiency. Railinc serves as the rail industry’s leading resource for rail data, information technology and information services, and uses one of the world's largest data networks to track customer shipments. AAR also supports the Railroad Research Foundation (RRF), a world-class policy research organization dedicated to sustaining a safe, secure and technologically advanced rail network.

The allure of railroading is kaleidoscopic, offering many paths to fulfillment, skills building and opportunities for advancement. With Thanksgiving around the corner, we want to take a moment to recognize the commitment of America’s railroaders to deliver for American communities and businesses from coast to coast. Hear what draws railroaders to the industry, why they stay so long (the median tenure of rail employees is 13 years) and how they spark the same passion in future generations: www.aar.org/Jobs-Report. ?? Domingo Molina at BNSF Railway used to train new conductors and locomotive engineers to operate safely through a fun and personal approach. ?? Daniel Ryland at CPKC started his 17-year career as an apprentice railcar repairman. Today, he's a trainmaster and finds it rewarding to ensure his yard forces have everything they need for a successful journey. ?? Jeremiah Thomas at CN finds purpose in continuing to serve others, after a career in the Marines. He enjoys the camaraderie the most at the railroad. ?? Kaleb Fields, a third-generation railroader at CSX, and Joe Wilson who works with his son at Norfolk Southern, illustrate how railroading is a family tradition – one driven by a dedicated team and the brightest minds who keep America on track.
