Siemens Mobility launches video series on critical need for rail infrastructure in America

Siemens Mobility has created a call to action through a video series highlighting the need for American rail investment that it says is critical to economic recovery.

The video series launched March 25 with four short videos and calls for congressional leaders to take action for jobs, for the economy and for the environment.

More than 150 years ago, the American railroad was symbol of progress and prosperity; connecting oceans, transporting pioneers in search of the American dream, says Siemens, noting American rail infrastructure fell behind other nations and the rail networks shrunk and congestion prevailed.

The videos show how investing in rail today will renew America as the land of opportunity through high-wage, high-skill jobs to build infrastructure that will move goods more quickly and connect people to possibilities. 

The company also created a social media toolkit to help promote the message for rail infrastructure investment now and calls on Congressional leaders to pass a comprehensive infrastructure spending bill.
