Dear Anna
Have you tried asking Network Rail? They seem (from my casual knowledge) to have a fair number of women engineers. Our heritage railway members may well have some contacts.

Subject: Women in Engineering
Dear HENners
As part of our Arts Council funded Making it Work Project, we're going to be holding a Women in Engineering evening here at the Long Shop - to encourage local young women to think about Engineering (and more generally, the STEM subjects) as a career (or even a spare time interest). We've got some local contacts involved, mainly from EDF at Sizewell, but would love to be able to have other women engineers come along and talk about their engineering career or interests.
Are there any women engineers out there- professional or volunteer - who would like to be involved? Or do you know of any we could ask? (I remember the very good speaker we had a couple of years ago at a HEN event here, from the Black Country Living Museum - but that is a bit of a way to come for an evening...)
