"Working Women on the Rails" Public Tour - National Museum of Railroad History & Innovation

Public Tour

The B&O Railroad has impacted American history in more ways than just transportation.

For the past almost 200 years, the experiences of workers on the B&O Railroad have helped various groups achieve civil rights and forge new roles in the American labor force. This tour will focus on pioneering women railroad workers throughout history and how their lives and achievements in the railroad industry have left a lasting impact on our world to this day.
