The Inside Track: Career Lessons from Across Rail's Ecosystem

We've all asked the question: What does success look like in my role?
In an industry as complex as rail, the answer depends entirely on your place within it.

Propel opens with a rare, behind-the-scenes look at career growth across the entire rail industry. The Inside Track: Career Lessons from Across Rail's Ecosystem brings together a candid panel of professionals—from Class I and Short Line to Contractor and Supplier—to unpack the unwritten rules, unique pressures, and unexpected rewards of building a career in rail.

This is not your typical top-down panel. Expect honest conversations about cross-sector communication, rising through the ranks, and what it really takes to thrive—no matter your role in the supply chain.

Don't miss this essential session kicking off Propel on Monday, October 6, 2025, at the Convene in downtown Chicago, and keep an eye on your inbox as we reveal four more dynamic sessions in the Propel lineup built to challenge, inspire, and empower the next generation of rail professionals.
