Timeline
A plaque was unveiled in her honour at Upton Park station on 31 May 2019.
Dadds died on 5 December 2011 after a long illness. Speaking after her death, Howard Collins, chief executive of London Underground, said: "Hannah Dadds changed the working life of women on the Tube and the way in which many people viewed Tube drivers" and that "She was an esteemed member of our workforce."
In 2004, she was invited to a Queen's Women of Achievement lunch at Buckingham Palace; other women attending that year included Margaret Thatcher, JK Rowling, Kate Moss and Charlotte Church.
Dadds worked as a driver with the London Underground until she took early retirement in 1993, after which she moved to Spain. The London Transport Museum made an oral history recording with Dadds in 1993 in which she described her career.
It has been suggested that Dadds could have been selected to drive the first Jubilee line train in 1979, she could not drive due to a foot injury.
In 1978, Dadds completed a seven-week training course to qualify as a train driver, and became a driver on the District line. In doing so, she became the first female train driver on the London Underground. This was big news and newspapers and radio stations wanted to interview her after news of her appointment was leaked from head office. Instead of completing her training in the usual way, she was asked to stay off work for a few days to allow staff at 55 Broadway (London Transport's head office) time to organise a press conference.
In 1969, Dadds joined the London Underground, working as a 'railwoman' at Upton Park Underground station. She then worked as a ticket collector and in 1976 she became a train guard. Train guards were also emergency drivers in case something happened to the driver or if there was an accident. While male guards could train further in order to become a driver, female guards could not. The Sex Discrimination Act 1975 removed this barrier, and many women applied to become Tube train drivers. Dadds was one of the first to qualify for the program.
Hannah Dadds (née Head, 16 October 1941 – 5 December 2011) was a British train driver known for being the first female train driver on the London Underground.
