A Great Day at Riverfest!

It was another gorgeous fall day in the Tri-Cities for this year's RiverFest at Columbia Park in Kennewick. Two of our awesome volunteers Dan and Jay are talking about the importance of calling the telephone number on the blue Emergency Notification System sign to report problems directly to the railroad. Dan and Jay are both locomotive engineers for BNSF Railway and volunteer their free time to Washington Operation Lifesaver to help keep others safe around the railroads.

Another Great Year at the Spokane Interstate Fair!

Thank you to all the volunteers who interacted with 6,299 visitors at the Spokane Interstate Fair this year, which ran September 11-20, 2026.

Your efforts are appreciated and make a real difference.

WA OL Partners with Sound Transit

During the FIFA World Cup, WA OL volunteers partnered with Sound Transit's Station Ambassadors to provide in-person outreach at passenger stations. On multiple game days, the crew handed out soccer-themed See Tracks? Think Train! bracelets and provided rail safety education and information.
