The Chair of the Big Sky Passenger Rail Association (BSPRA) says major meetings this week in Billings could be a big milestone for efforts to restore Amtrak service across Montana’s “Southern Route”.

It was just short of two years ago the BSPRA held its first virtual summit during the pandemic, a fledgling effort to bring passenger trains back to the “Southern Route” hitting cities like Billings, Bozeman and Missoula for the first time in 40 years.

Since then, the efforts have expanded rapidly. And this coming Monday and Tuesday, the “Great Northwest Passenger Rail Summit” will discuss not only service in Montana but adjoining states.
