Not that I know of.

Good one. I only hope that the other FEC railfans here find that equally amusing.

If you really were not trying to get people stirred up, you would have just said "We're all entitled to our opinions and mine is that railroading is a man's domain" in the first place. Instead, you decided to make your previous rude remarks. Perhaps you should be living in the early to mid 1900s rather than in 2008. Sorry if that gets your feathers ruffled, but we're all entitled to our opinions!
Personally, I see nothing wrong with women being railroaders. In fact, I think it's a good thing. One of the dispatchers for the BNSF Creston Sub here in my area is a woman.
Thanks to Chris / CopCarSS for my avatar.

You mean like cooking, cleaning or doing laundry?

Right you are, she's the exact opposite of butch. A woman doesn't have to be "butch" to work on the railroad. I worked with a few and they were cool, I don't see them as being anything less just because of gender. I did know one that had no business being a conductor. She couldn't stop running through switches and tearing up equipment, she was a danger to herself and others, but aside from that she was a very nice person who I had nothing but respect for. She never complained and she worked hard. But without trying to sound like a pig, I think it's sorta hot, but that's just me.
