Lindsey Collins joins NRC as grassroots VP

Written by William C. Vantuono, Editor-In-Chief, Railway Age

Lindsey Collins has joined the NRC (National Railroad Construction & Maintenance Association) as Vice President of Grassroots Advocacy.

She comes to NRC from the Washington, D.C.-based multi-modal transportation policy think-tank Eno Center for Transportation, where she managed fundraising efforts for projects and working groups, including the Freight Working Group, of which the NRC is a member.

“Lindsey’s primary role will be to facilitate meetings between members of Congress and NRC member companies to demonstrate first-hand how the work they’re doing is positively affecting the rail industry, and the local and national economy,” said NRC President Chuck Baker. “She will also work with Matt Bell, Matt Ginsberg and me to provide assistance to NRC members regarding membership services, conference planning, website updating, committee staffing and regulatory and legislative issues.”

Collins replaces Ashley Bosch, who remains at Chambers, Conlon & Hartwell working on rail issues, though not as an NRC staffer.

Collins holds a bachelor’s degree in history and English Literature from Queens University of Charlotte, N.C., and a master’s degree in Modern British and European History from the University of Oxford.
