Join AAR
AAR’s membership programs are for every business that depends on America’s freight rail system to be the best in the world.
AAR has played an integral role shaping industry’s continuing success. Unlike trade organizations in other fields, AAR not only provides the freight rail industry a strong, united voice that policymakers hear, we also facilitate the operations, safety, security, and research that have laid the track for a strong, integrated industry.
As members, you have a voice in the operations and the future of the freight rail industry — and you’re part of a unified voice respected by policymakers whose decisions affect that industry.
You’ll receive exclusive invitations to events throughout each year where you can network with leaders of the rail industry, policymakers and other AAR members.
You’ll receive weekly information — including policy updates, industry news and the latest rail traffic reports — along with access to other information available only to you as an AAR member. And you’ll enjoy special services related to your particular areas of concentration within the industry.
In addition, our member programs support industry efforts such as AAR’s Railroad Research Foundation, which strengthens the freight railroad industry through research, communication and education.
