A Philadelphia Football Sunday With the Railroad Community
Railroaders share a community that extends beyond the yard, terminal, shop, and right-of-way. Events like this give us an opportunity to bring the community together outside of work.
Whether you’re currently working on the railroad, retired after a career on the railroad, representing railroad workers through your union, or attending with a railroad family member, we hope you’ll join us.
Come spend Sunday afternoon with McEldrew Purtell and the railroad community as we cheer on the Birds against Pittsburgh.
