** We have been notified that the confirmation/receipt email is defaulting to "March 24th" regardless of the session you choose. We are working with our CRM to try to correct this. You only have to plan to attend the session you have selected.

NOTICE: The regional RailNation: DC workshops will be followed by a full-day Council Business meeting in DC later in the Spring (date TBA). Another full-day Council meeting in a competitively selected location somewhere else in the country in the Fall.

Accommodations

There are a number of hotel properties around DC's Metro Center (where the Rail Passengers Office is located - marked by the red star). We have marked a few on the map below, as well as the Capitol and Union Station.



Depending on your hotel/hospitality arrangements, WMATA may be the easiest transportation option. We encourage you to visit WMATAs website to help with your planning needs.
