The Amtrak Service Workers Council consists of three unions that represent Amtrak service workers: The Transport Workers Union of America, UNITE-HERE & TCU-IAM.
In honor of Larry’s legacy and life’s work in support of passenger rail and the working people who keep our rail network moving, @Amtrak trains will sound their horns in salute today at noon.
The TWU will "fight like hell" to preserve Railroad careers. “We take this announcement very seriously and are doing all we can to save our members careers,” said TWU Railroad Division Director John Feltz @Amtrak#coldcust

Sisters & brothers in the TWU Railroad Division need your help! @Amtrak is putting 20% of its workers on the chopping block to be furloughed and has plans to drastically reduce long-distance services. Tell Congress to Fund Amtrak and Save Jobs!

“When Congress rejects Amtrak’s corridor plan, it appears that Amtrak will once again be left without a real vision for the National Network...This is disappointing” said @SenatorTomUdall@transportworker@MachinistsUnion@TCUnionHQ https://t.co/s0947A8b9h
Today, I stood with colleagues, workers and activists who are making it clear to Amtrak that outsourcing of jobs will not be accepted. We need to invest in infrastructure right here at home. @AmtrakCouncil
TWU Local 2003 President Danny Groves II spoke at the Indiana Rail Alliance Rally to save @Amtrak Hoosier State Rail Service on April 17. Check out the video! #coldcuts https://t.co/k6ZD1WDcZH
"Wednesday’s rally at the Statehouse, set up by @IPRA and @transportworker Local 2003, provided a look at the rail service’s bipartisan support." Stop the #coldcuts@amtrak https://t.co/zmRqF0p39Y
Yesterday's @Amtrak Lobby Day was a success! About 50 railroad union members took to Capitol Hill to demand that Amtrak President Anderson stop outsourcing jobs and preserve our national rail network. @transportworker members met w/ @RepRobinKelly (D-IL-2) #dontfailrail#coldcuts
