from Great Rail Tales · host Railway 200

When Rajinder Pryor joined the rail industry 20 years ago, she came through the Women in Rail mentoring programme. Today Rajinder leads that programme, giving back to all the women that have followed her over the past two decades. To mark her 20th anniversary in the rail industry, Rajinder went on a very personal pilgrimage to her ancestral home in the Punjab, taking a Railway 200 teddy with her. Teddy became symbolic of the journey, her life and her relationship with the railway as they travelled around India to some of the nation’s most famous sites and landmarks.
