We’ll see you in Minneapolis for the RTSA Technical Conference. We are meeting in conjunction with Railway Interchange 2019. There will be no other U.S event of this size – covering the many disciplines of railroad railcar mechanical maintenance and engineering in the railroad industry. You really have to be there.

Your price of admission, in addition to our RTSA technical Conference, includes access to the exhibit hall. Companies such as railcar & locomotive builders, mechanical equipment manufacturers, and rail service suppliers will be on hand with their latest products. Expect to see the latest innovations in the rail supply industry. New technologies will be displayed and opportunities to make new connections are all around. Meals and receptions will be held on the exhibit hall floor giving you plenty of time for networking and mingling.
