On March 18 and 19th, ASW will be attending the SWARS 2025 Annual Meeting. Twice a year, the Southwest Association of Rail Shippers (SWARS) holds an open forum where companies involved in rail transportation convene. Over 800 people are expected to be in attendance. SWARS is one of five regional associations that make up the North American Association of Rail Shippers (NARS).

In January, we attended the Midwest Association of Rail Shippers (MARS) Winter Meeting just outside of Chicago.
