Women of Wabtec (WOW)’s purpose – “Dedicated to progressing the culture of Wabtec to ensure the expansion of diversity and gender balance while affording development opportunities for women in all stages of their life and careers. WoW welcomes all interested men and women”.

As the birth home of the Flying Scotsman, we would like to invite WR on a tour of our facilities to highlight to members the fantastic and varied component overhaul work that is carried out at this historic site including vehicles, wheelsets, bogies, HVAC and Powertrain.

The event will consist of presentations, site tour, networking, and light lunch. In addition, we will have 2-3 senior team members for a panel discussion.

Note for visitors: Doncaster is an old site. There are lots of uneven surfaces and some areas that have steps and slopes (from the car park to entering some buildings). However, if we do have anyone with accessibility issues, we can seek alternative entries to areas with steps.

Please add any dietary requirements in the notes section.
