Baseball, Food & an Afternoon With the Railroad Community
McEldrew Purtell hosted our 2025 FELA Phillies Tailgate on Saturday, May 17, bringing together railroad workers, retirees, union representatives, families, friends, and colleagues for an afternoon of food, drinks, music, games, and Phillies baseball.
Guests joined us at the Jetro Lot before the Philadelphia Phillies took on the Pittsburgh Pirates at Citizens Bank Park.
Thank you to everyone who came out and spent the afternoon with us.
About the FELA Phillies Tailgate
McEldrew Purtell’s annual FELA Phillies Tailgate is an opportunity for members of the railroad community to get together away from the job and enjoy one of Philadelphia’s favorite traditions.
The 2025 event brought railroaders, families, friends, and members of our team together for a relaxed afternoon before the Phillies game.
Events like the Phillies Tailgate are part of our ongoing effort to stay connected with the railroad community throughout the year.
