Welcome Aboard!

The Railroad Passenger Car Alliance (RPCA) is a 501(c)(6) business alliance dedicated to fostering and assisting in the preservation, display, and operation of rail passenger equipment and museums preserving the history of rail transportation in North America. The RPCA and its members provide valuable resources for research and data pertaining to railroad equipment.

RPCA members have exclusive access to RPCA’s insurance program, reporting marks, and mechanical resources. Members receive monthly email newsletters and quarterly printed copies of Passenger Car Magazine. Members can attend RPCA events, including mechanical training sessions and our annual conference.

RPCA membership is essential for individual passenger rail equipment owners, industry vendors, passenger rail operators, tourist railroads, and railroad museums. However, anyone with professional ties to the passenger rail industry or an interest in railroad transportation can benefit from joining. RPCA welcomes you aboard!

To participate in any RPCA Membership Services, the legal car owner, company, or organization must be a member of RPCA.
