The Inaugural Ohio Rail Summit: The Premier Passenger Rail Advocacy Event

Join All Aboard Ohio for the Inaugural Ohio Rail Summit—currently recognized a leading passenger rail advocacy convening in the United States. This premier statewide event brings together top public officials, transportation professionals, transit advocates, and regional partners to map out the future of passenger rail infrastructure across Ohio and the Midwest.

​

Why Now?

The Summit arrives at a critical turning point for U.S. transportation. As Ohio and neighboring states leverage historic federal rail programs, interstate planning initiatives, and major long-term infrastructure investments, this event serves as the definitive national forum for understanding how modern rail corridors move from concept to implementation.

​

An Elevated New Format Evolving from All Aboard Ohio’s historic Annual Meeting, the newly minted Ohio Rail Summit reflects the massive national momentum and expanded scope of the passenger rail conversation. This high-impact format emphasizes deep, cross-sector collaboration—recognizing that the future of American transit relies on seamless coordination between public agencies, local leaders, and regional coalitions.
