Post Office Railway
I admin various web locations looking at individual themes relevant to The Forsythe Collection (a large part of which is at York). One is called Railway Philately on Facebook. A new upload shared the picture below and said "Mail
by rail, should - famously - include the Royal Mail's own electric tube
railway under London. Now mothballed. One of the 1927 units is on
display in National Railway Museum York. Here it is on 26th February
2013. Two electric power units sandwich a low slung carrier with
containers for the mail (white item). See http://en.wikipedia.org/
