Zoom program: Chip and Leslie Savoye’s 50-year love for trains

Join the Center on Tuesday, February 25, for “I Love Trains: Our Journey Over 50 Years,” an evening webinar with Chip and Leslie Savoye, accomplished railroaders and photographers, as they share their lifelong love of trains and their wonderful photography.

Leslie holds groundbreaking achievements in the railroad industry: she was the first female locomotive engineer for the Chicago and North Western (C&NW) and later became the first female road foreman for Amtrak. Over her distinguished career, Leslie worked for nine different railroads. Chip began as a locomotive engineer for Penn Central and Conrail, and advanced through various leadership roles including road foreman, trainmaster, superintendent, director, and vice president of operations. Today they are principles at Iron Horse Consulting, LLC, where they provide professional transportation services to the railroad industry.
