I'd appreciate some help with where I would fall on the spectrum of this topic

I began my railroading career in 1947 ( age 7 ) as a mascot in the steam roundhouse of the CRRofNJ in Cranford NJ about a 5 minute bike ride from our house. By age 11 the full timers had taught me how to clean fires, start air compressors and run the engines so on bad weather days they'd send me out into the yard to bring an engine in, spin it on the table and put it away on a given track. No women anywhere around.

Then I graduated to the Pine Creek RR and ran Shay #6 around a 5/8 mile oval in Allaire State Park at the roaring speed of 5 mph. No women around.

Then I graduated to the BR&W RR and fired & ran BR&W 2-8-0 # 60 at the blazing speed of 15-20 mph. No women around.

Then I graduated to the High Iron Company ( HICO ) and ran various mainline engines over 12 different class 1 railroads at track speed ( 79 mph max.) No women around.

Then I graduated to the AFT and ran the AFT 1 ( Rdg. 2101) throughout the Northeast pulling the AFT at 45 mph max. No women around.

Then I graduated to running C&O 614 over various Class 1 roads at track speed ( 90 mph max.) . No women around.

To be clear when I say no women around I mean in engine service.

Going forward I'd like to stay with what's worked well for me since 1947. I hope that doesn't make me too much of a sexist?? If it does I'll just have to live with it.

Such is life. Thanks, Ross Rowland
