Progressive Railroading's Secure Rail Conference is soliciting presentation abstracts to be considered for the 2017 conference in Orlando, Fla.

The abstracts will be used to shape the educational sessions at Secure Rail, which will be held April 5-6, 2017.

Secure Rail is the first conference that addresses North American rail security from an organizational perspective. Conference sessions will feature strategies and insights from industry experts on how to manage technology, assets, employees and passengers, and protect them from manmade threats and dangers. Last year, topics included cybersecurity, emerging technologies, drones, human-trafficking and the Internet of Things.
