Turning our Stories into Action

The Big Sky Passenger Rail Authority invites you to its 2025 Annual Conference, where public, private, and non-profit leaders from the Great Lakes to the Pacific will launch the nation’s largest economic and community development project in over 50 years: the creation of high-performance rail and connecting services on the 2,300+ mile Big Sky North Coast Corridor.

The Corridor Vision

This majestic route crosses the headwaters of the nation’s largest rivers, climbs its most scenic mountain ranges, and rests on incredible coasts at either end. Along the way, it will connect 21 metropolitan areas, hundreds of smaller communities, and dozens of Tribal nations. This project will create good-paying jobs and new business activity everywhere, expand access to health care, education, cultural and natural resources, and increase mobility in ways that expand hope, imagination, enterprise, and cooperation across the region.

The Conference Theme

This year’s theme — Turning our Stories into Action — focuses on participants setting this project in motion by:

  • Sharing experiences and ideas

  • Developing strategies to advance the effort

  • Collaborating across sectors to build relationships needed for success

The three-day conference will feature panel discussions, keynote speakers, regional and cross-border perspectives, and interactive opportunities to make a difference for both the 25 million people of the Greater Northwest and the countless visitors who will arrive by passenger rail.

The Setting

Participants will gather in Livingston, Montana — the spectacular northern gateway to Yellowstone National Park.
