Thomas is excited that the Wansford Controller is letting him pull the Mail Train for one day only! Come along and meet Postie Pete and his Cat, Ginger, who work on the Mail Train. Mail Trains, or Travelling Post Offices (TPOs), used to run throughout the night, dropping off and picking up bags of letters non-stop using a special net on the side of the train. We’re now one of the only places in the country that can still do this. Thomas has been practicing this and would love to show all the boys and girls, and grown-ups too, how he can do this just as well as the bigger engines!
