1 RAILWAY AGE OCTOBER presented by railway age october arlington, va key bridge marriott 2016 program

2 Overview Railway Age builds on its successful Crude by Rail conferences with a revised and expanded format: ENERGY BY RAIL. We ll examine the issues and trends surrounding the many types of energy and ancillary products that move in railcars crude oil, ethanol, LPG, LNG, frac sand, and coal, among others. Liquid energy, a newer source of railroad traffic as well as a driver of new freight car construction for carbuilders and component suppliers, is tightly regulated and a source of public concern over safety. Coal, a generations-old source of major railroad revenue, has become challenging in recent years. What does the future hold? How will the industry adapt and adjust to shifting market dynamics and regulatory requirements? Key topics Traffic trends: crude by rail, ethanol, coal, compressed natural gas Powder River Basin coal: 20 years and gone? Liquefied natural gas without an FRA waiver Crude by Rail: Is a recovery possible? How is crude oil volatility being addressed? The carbuilding market: hazmat tank cars, covered hoppers, open-top gondolas Climate change, energy independence, sustainability and the railroads Politics, a Presidential election and regulation: Changes or status quo? The U.S. and Canada: Harmony or disparity? Audience Railway Age s Energy by Rail attracts key decision makers from the rail and energy industries, including: Railroad transportation and operating personnel Carbuilders and component suppliers Consultants Government agencies, advisors and regulators Crude oil producers and refiners Ethanol producers and distributors Compressed natural gas producers and transporters Liquefied natural gas producers and transporters Coal producers Traders/commodity investors First responders
