Join us at the Nene Valley Railway to explore how mail has been moved around the country for over a hundred years.
The highlight of the weekend will be our 'Mail Train Experiences' where you can ride in our Travelling Post Office (TPO) train. Visitors then alight before watching demonstration run-pasts to experience how mail was exchanged in heavy leather pouches from a moving train.
On the Travelling Post Office train you can test your mail sorting speed, a hands-on activity for young and old.
Just £10 per person
