Framed Print of Female telegraph operator, 1910
A female operator can be seen here working the switchboard at the Paddington Telegraph Office in 1910. Prior to this date the Great Western Railway had been slow to employ women in their telegraph offices. After seeing the Post Office successfully use women in their telephone exchanges the GWR finally introduced women in 1909. STEAM - Museum of the Great Western Railway. © STEAM - Museum of the GWR
