Promoting passenger trains as a transportation alternative in Florida since 1983. We are citizens who advocate for Amtrak, commuter rail, intercity rail and transit for Florida's future.
Join the Florida Coalition of Rail Passengers at Tampa Train Day!
Tampa Train Day returns to historic Tampa Union Station on Saturday, May 11, from 10 AM to 4 PM. Join us for history exhibits, model train displays, live music and food trucks at this free, family-friendly event, now in its 12th year! Come on out and celebrate the 150th anniversary of the Golden Spike ceremony that marked the completion of the transcontinental railroad with us! This event is organized by the volunteers of nonprofit group Friends of Tampa Union Station, who work to raise funds and awareness for our historic station, completed in 1912.
FCRP has been a participant in this event since its inception in 2008 and was part of the team which successfully preserved and restored Tampa Union Station in the 1990s.
