AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Aunty Recheal Daley Becomes a Train Driver tells the story of Recheal who wanted to be a train driver just like her father in a time when women weren't train drivers. It tells of her journey from starting work cleaning platforms at Wynyard Station in Sydney, to working on the ticket gates and her humorous expose of wearing a uniform designed for men.'
