Join us October 7-10, 2024, at the stunning Westin Lake Resort and Spa in Henderson, Nevada, for the 106th Annual RTA Conference!

This premier event will unite professionals from across the wood tie and railroad industries: sawmillers, wood treaters, railroad engineers and procurement personnel, allied association representatives that support RTA's efforts to promote the long-term sustainability of the wooden railroad tie, and many more. Be inspired by informative sessions led by industry experts covering key topics such as:

Challenges and Opportunities in the Hardwood Marketplace
Legislative Affairs
Sustainability Practices
Research and Innovation
Railroad Engineering Projects
Railroad Procurement Trends and Expectations

Beyond these enriching sessions, you'll have ample opportunities to network at receptions, a banquet and awards ceremony with a "Go, Team!" theme (Wear your favorite team jersey to the banquet!), our annual golf tournament at the Jack Nicklaus Signature Reflection Bay Golf Club, and off-site visits to the Red Rock Canyon National Preservation Area and the Hoover Dam that will showcase the beauty of the area and give you pictures that will delight your friends, family, and social media followers back home!

The Westin Lake Resort and Spa provides the perfect backdrop for learning and networking. Just 20 minutes from the Las Vegas Strip, it offers a serene environment that even attracted the NFL Kansas City Chiefs for Super Bowl LVIII. With on-site dining, a spa, pool, and other amenities, this resort promises a rejuvenating experience.

Mark your calendar for October 7-10, book your travel to Las Vegas Harry Reid International Airport, and stay tuned right here for registration details. Browse photos from the 2023 Conference HERE.
