2024 Commuter Rail Coalition Summit Highlights
The Commuter Rail Coalition (CRC) recently hosted its third annual Commuter Rail Summit in Boston. Thought leaders, policymakers and stakeholders of today’s commuter rail industry joined together Oct. 14-16 at the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) building located at 10 Park Plaza to reflect upon and celebrate past accomplishments, reconnect with friends and colleagues, and share collective insights and experiences that will benefit communities nationwide.
Attendees were treated to a welcome event on Oct. 14 that included a culinary journey on the Cape Cod Central Railroad. CRC then kicked off the event on Oct. 15 with a plethora of insightful sessions that touched on topics such as ridership, driving on-time performance, innovations in fare policy and media, climate resiliency, accessibility and facing the fiscal cliff. The day concluded with the Champions of Commuter Rail Awards Dinner abroad The Spirit of Boston. This year’s winners included John D. (Jody) Ray, who received the CRC’s 2024 Champion of Commuter Rail Award; and Jennifer Mitchell, who received the 2024 “DOTY” Award.
Sessions picked back up again bright and early on Oct. 16 and included such topics as the future of commuter rail, diversity and equity in ridership, and PTC (Positive Train Control). The day concluded with two optional technical tours: one at host agency Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) North Station and one at South Station.
This year’s sponsors included AECOM, Alstom, Amsted Rail, Clever Devices, Ensco, Hatch, Icomera, Keolis Commuter Services, Kuba, Network Rail, Rolling Stock Solutions, Stace Witbeck/MRS and Tracsis.

    This is a good video in spite of two gripes: 1) I enjoy modern big band jazz music, but in this case it was very distracting and unnecessary. 2) The constant use of the zoom lens in the first half of the video was annoying to watch; it "slowed down" the train. The cab views were interesting and I learned a lot about how these dual-mode locomotives are operated. The engineer seems like a cool guy.
