Who is your company's Woman of Influence in Rail?

Progressive Railroading is calling for nominations for its new recognition program, "Women of Influence in Rail." The program was created to celebrate the impactful contributions made by women in the railroad industry.

Through Dec. 31, Progressive Railroading is seeking railroad companies' nominations of female employees who meet the criteria for influence in one of five categories: leadership, innovation, mentorship, technology or sustainability.

We want to know how your nominee's influence has left a meaningful impact on your company and/or the rail industry. Companies may nominate up to five female employees, one per category. Recognition is open to women working for North American Class Is, short lines, regionals, passenger railroads, or rail industry suppliers, contractors, product manufacturers or engineering firms that contract with railroads.

Women of Influence in Rail honorees will be announced in Progressive Railroading's Daily News by Feb. 2, 2025, and recognized on the magazine's website, in print and at a virtual program in March 2025.
