Three female engineers in York are urging other females to follow in their footsteps, following on from many women thinking that they cannot work in this field.

Clare Brint, Olivia Huntly and Lorena Muscai all work for Network Rail and are based in York.

This trio are involved in a variety of different projects, including working on upgrading railway stations, maintaining overhead line equipment and are carrying out geotechnical work to make sure that trains are working efficiently and safely.
