Exploring a part of history that remained largely untold, 'Rail Road Rebels' delves into the shadows and onto the sunny patches of the lives led astray from the mainstream by choice or by necessity.

As the reader traverses through these chapters and into the lives of women who made the railways their domain, they will come to recognize a shared human desire-the unquenchable thirst for liberation, for writing one's script in the face of adversity, and for living a life that's truly one's own.This book is an ode to their unbound spirit, an acknowledgment of the trails blazed and the trains jumped, of the bonds formed amidst the roar of engines, and the choice to ride into the unknown. In essence, it captures the essence of what it meant-and still means-to be a rebel on railways.
