We welcomed the Association of American Railroads (AAR) back on the podcast to talk about how the freight railroad industry is integrating new technologies to increase safety and efficiency. Adrian Arnakis, SVP of Government Affairs and Ted Greener, Executive Director of Public Affairs, shared their thoughts on how tech companies can help to increase driver awareness near grade crossings, how railroads are using drones to conduct inspections and increase safety, and what they hope to see in the next federal surface transportation bill.
