It seeks to understand the jobs in which boys and girls were initiated, their working conditions, the links and relationships established with the rest of the workforce, as well as their practices and spaces of sociability. In particular, it understands that the gender dimension constitutes a key perspective to study and comprehend their experiences and that, in a labor world composed mostly by men, the work space was essential in the construction of roles, ideas and prerogatives around masculinity. From this, it hopes to contribute to the knowledge of the experiences of working-class youth, a sector little explored and barely problematized by labor historiography. El presente artículo propone explorar las experiencias sociales de la juventud obrera a partir del caso del mundo del trabajo ferroviario en la Argentina de las primeras décadas del siglo XX. El texto busca conocer los puestos laborales en los que muchachos y muchachas se iniciaban, sus condiciones de trabajo, los vínculos y relaciones entabladas con el resto del personal, así como sus prácticas y espacios de sociabilidad. En particular, entiende que la dimensión de género constituye una perspectiva clave para estudiar y comprender sus experiencias y que, en un mundo laboral compuesto mayoritariamente por varones, el espacio de trabajo fue primordial en la construcción de roles, ideas y prerrogativas en torno a la masculinidad. A partir de ello, espera contribuir al conocimiento de las experiencias de la juventud obrera, un sector poco explorado y apenas problematizado por la historiografía sobre la clase trabajadora.
