Why This Film Now?
Trainsforming America director Rebecca Sansom says, “I hope that the film can play a part in encouraging policy-makers and citizens to realize that expanding our rail infrastructure is crucial to the future of transportation in the U.S.”
“This film is a basic primer on why trains are wonderful and, oddly, how to use them,” writes Christian Wolmar, author of The Great American Revolution: The History of American Railroads.
This PNC-sponsored event benefits the work of the Northeast Indiana Passenger Rail Association, Inc., a nonprofit organization working since 2009 to plan and promote a high speed rail corridor connecting Fort Wayne to Chicago as well as points east.
