El presente artículo tiene por objetivo describir y analizar los significados elaborados en torno a la carrera ferroviaria y la agencia de las trabajadoras implicada en ese recorrido secuencial. Se sostiene que las mujeres que se desempeñan en esta actividad con alta participación masculina se adentran en una búsqueda de respeto profesional y de nuevos proyectos que expanden sus márgenes de agencia aun en un marco restrictivo. En un nivel de análisis micro-social, la metodología se basa en el análisis de contenido de entrevistas en profundidad y en observaciones realizadas en espacios de trabajo y en una seccional sindical en contextos de modernización y políticas de género en los ferrocarriles metropolitanos de Buenos Aires.
