Mail by Rail1st & 2nd June:
Just £10 per person
Mail by Rail returns for 2024. As ever, it will include our ‘Mail Train Experiences’ where you can ride in our Travelling Post Office (TPO) train. The train will undertake Mailbag Exchanges, where visitors can experience how heavy mailbags were exchanged from the side of a moving train. New for 2024, the mail train will also be undertaking additional trips to Yarwell during the day which you can ride on. Visitors can have a go at sorting mail and learn what life was like on board the TPOs from our friendly postmen and sorters.
On Saturday 1st June the TPO train will be hauled by BR Class 45 ‘Peak’ 45041, and on Sunday 2nd June by BR Class 14 9529.
This year we have a new fare system, and tickets for the TPO and Mail by Rail are only £10 per person. Please note this ticket does not include the service train to Peterborough and standard charges apply to this.
