The Big Rail Diversity Challenge

17th June 2026

The Big Rail Diversity Challenge was created to highlight the benefits of gender-balance and diversity in the UK rail industry.

Launched in 2016 by Women in Rail in collaboration with multi-media marketing specialists Nimble Media Ltd, this flagship event helps break down barriers, change the image of rail and ultimately bridges the skills gap in the sector.

A cross between “It’s a Knockout” and “The Krypton Factor”, The Big Rail Diversity Challenge is an all-inclusive event and provides a platform for everyone to team build and network while taking part in a mixture of fun challenges consisting of mental-, physical- and skill-based activities within gender balanced-teams.

The event showcases that gender-diverse teams work better together and raises awareness of the business benefits attained when companies improve equality, diversity, and inclusion within their workforce.
