Transportation Communications Newsletter

**25th Anniversary Year**

 🎂Tuesday, June 13, 2023 - Cranford, New Jersey 🍾


**Silver Anniversary Edition**


**Bernie’s Notes**

Today we celebrate us! On June 13, 1998 I made the first post in the transport-communications group that was initially set up as a discussion forum about communications in the transportation field. Shortly after, I began sharing news stories to the group and that quickly evolved to the newsletter format you see today. I’m happy to say that since the newsletter began I’ve only missed one edition, and that was due to an unexpected hospital stay. Thank you for your support over the years. I hope by sharing information I’ve been able to make a small contribution to improving transportation.
