“Soot, Service, and Show: A brief history of women’s work on railways”
Women’s work has been vital to railway operation from its inception. As engineers, service personnel, ambassadors, and more, women of many kinds have shaped the railway industry and experience as we know it.
Well isn’t that special, but shouldn’t we be more concerned about this gaggle of folks who are burning through a multi-billion dollar tax-funded budget to build regional light rail, but are failing miserably to do so?
