Visit the Travelling Post Office coaches.

Mail by rail started in 1838 – and finished in 2004 and this new addition to the centre illustrates the journey our post would have taken!

Pictures, Text And Film (Including “Night Mail”) tell the story of these vehicles from start to end.

Learn about The 1963 Great Train Robbery.

See how mail was sorted – “Have A Go” Yourself.
