VRE is looking for a few opinionated riders

Virginia Railway Express wants to know more about what’s on their passengers’ minds.

The commuter railroad is asking riders who board at the Quantico, Woodbridge and Lorton stations to consider joining its Passenger Alliance Coalition.

VRE plans to hold a PAC meeting this fall, with another to come later – possibly next year.

“Meetings take place twice a year in our Alexandria office and usually last between an hour and a half to two hours, with frequent email dialogue in between meetings,” said VRE spokesman Ryan Lang.

Riders who wish to become part of the coalition may fill out a application and then return it to VRE.

Lang said PAC meetings are usually held twice a year.
