As part of a makeover policy, during this period, the company allocated a remarkable attention towards the promoting of two sectors erected as a handle of the modernization: the “Trenes Bandera” hostesses and the “Centro de Cómputos” employees. I argue that the attention to the women on the railroad was associated to the fact that their inclusion was considered as a way to modernize the company. To achieve that, I analyse documentary sources and I also include the oral testimony of a "Trenes Banderas" hostess. El presente artículo analiza cómo, durante los años 1969 y 1973, la empresa Ferrocarriles Argentinos hizo del trabajo femenino una imagen visible. Como parte de una política de cambio de imagen, durante dicho período, la empresa destinó notable atención a la promoción de dos sectores que se erigían como asidero de la modernización: las azafatas de los “Trenes Bandera” y las empleadas del flamante Centro de Cómputos. Se argumenta que la atención puesta hacia las mujeres en el ferrocarril estuvo asociada al hecho de que su inclusión fuera considerada modernizante. Para ello, se analizan fuentes documentales y, también, se incorpora el testimonio oral de una azafata de los “Trenes Bandera”.
