I am aumsed to see that none of those who replied to your question were women. (at least until now) - Historically, women have been active in the rail industry when there have not been enough men to run the businesses (ie: during the wars) - It is true that within the last 20 - 25 years women have made tremendous strides into the industry, however it remains difficult to do so. There is an excellent book out about Women Railroaders which may be of interest to you. As to women in the cabs - the Naugatuck Railroad (Waterbury CT) has an ENTIRE train crew that is women and has been written up in local newspapers here. Hope this is useful informatin to you!!
