Through an online poll, Railway Age subscribers nominated a large group of active (non-retired) individuals from the North American freight, switching/terminal and passenger railroad; rail transit; government agency; and supplier communities.
The top 10 individuals who readers believe to be most influential in 2023—people whose mantra is making a difference, and who are committed to service—follow, in addition to two leaders earning honorable mention. Profiles will appear in Railway Age’s May 2023 issue.
