它是国际妇女和女孩的妇女日，鼓励更多的女性和女孩在科学，技术，工程和数学（Stew）中追求研究。
工作机会on the railway are better than ever, thanks partly to huge innovation and investment in engineering.
Watch this film to hear more from some of our people:
Tara Scott，首席工程师，赛道说：“不仅是研发的创新......您不仅要创建您的想法，您可能可能会看到它们放在轨道上。如果您现在加入工程，您将看到这一创新。“
肯特的基础设施维护仓库经理海伦警告突出了铁路上的“纯粹的规模和机会”。
她说：“我们已经搬到了安全和我们如何做事的机制等事情。发展的机会是巨大的，还有更多的计划来到铁路上，无论你想参与续约事物的东西的数字方面还是机械方面。这是吹嘘每个人都有多少机会。“
Inspiring more girls and women to explore STEM is crucial to the future of the railway
The UK requires 124,000 engineers and technicians with core engineering skills across the economy each year up to 2024, according to a report,工程英国：工程状况. There is an additional requirement for 79,000 related roles, requiring a mixed application of engineering knowledge and skill alongside other skill sets.
However, the report anticipates a shortfall of between 37,000 and 59,000 due to the supply of talent coming through education.
