Railroad Workers United

The vision and mission of Railroad Workers United (RWU) is to unite all railroad workers in solidarity across craft, union, and carrier in North America thereby creating a vital movement that has the power to confront the rail carriers and win improved wages and benefits, along with safer and more desirable working conditions. We strive to modernize and expand the existing freight and passenger rail system, generating thousands of good-paying union jobs while safeguarding the environment. Our goal is to ensure accessible passenger rail and to bring the benefits of a robust rail system to everyone, benefitting shippers, passengers, communities large and small, the environment, and railroad workers.
