RECONNECT

Welcome to IRSC 2025 – Canada’s #1 Industrial Railway Safety Conference! Held in Fort Saskatchewan on October 29, 2025, this one-day event brings together industrial and short line operators, Class 1 railways, regulators, shippers, suppliers, safety experts, academics, and economic development leaders from across North America. As the movement of goods by rail continues to grow, so do the challenges—and the opportunities. Join us for a powerful day of insight, innovation, and collaboration focused on what matters most: keeping our rail systems safe, efficient, and future-ready.

The theme for IRSC 2025 is "Reconnect." After years of rapid change, evolving regulations, and growing operational demands, this year is about coming together—face-to-face—to share knowledge, strengthen relationships, and build a safer future for industrial rail. Whether you’re a seasoned rail professional, a safety innovator, or new to the industry, IRSC 2025 is your opportunity to reconnect with peers, purpose, and progress. Let’s collaborate, exchange ideas, and reinforce the shared commitment that keeps our industry—and our communities—on track.
