Post rail advocacy info in train stations
Friday, April 7, 2017
Sometimes you will see information from chapters of the National Association of Railroad Passengers posted in train stations. You don't see this at [Washington] Union Station, but you do at Penn Station in Baltimore (at least back when I used to ride MARC to Baltimore a few days each week for work).

I first learned about NARP from a newsletter posted on a bulletin board in Baltimore's Penn Station in 1977. Even in this age of electronic and social media, print materials reach people who might not find out about our advocacy any other way.
NARP offers several types of print materials. Some stations are willing to let us post brochures and newsletters, others are not. Ask.
And if you're a NARP member, don't forget to order NARP business cards that you can hand out to fellow passengers. Information is available to members at this link.
