Highlights

Discover interactive exhibits that bring more than a century of postal engineering to life.
Take in a theatrical experience that transports you to the lively 1930s heyday of the railway.
From sorting mail in a Traveling Post Office to seeing the odd inventions that inspired it all, our entertaining displays bring you closer to the action.
From cryptic Victorian Valentine cards to a lion spotted on Salisbury Plain, there's something for everyone. There was also an odd pistol. The story in the post is anything but ordinary.
Some previous exhibitions include Wish You Were Here: 151 Years of the British Postcard, The Great Train Robbery: Crime & The Post, and Voices from the Deep.

Insider Tips

Arrive For Your Mail Rail Time Slot: Your visit starts at Mail Rail, so arrive at least 15 minutes before the time shown on your ticket to make sure you are not turned away.
Book Ahead, Especially On Weekends: Weekends and school holidays can sell out, so reserve your time slot online before you travel rather than relying on walk-up tickets.
Check You Can Walk 100 Meters Unaided: Boarding and riding Mail Rail requires walking about 100 meters without assistance, so plan ahead if mobility is a concern.
Bring Headphones For The Audio Guide: If you add the audio guide, bring your own headphones and collect your activation code at the ticket desk.
Prepare For Tight, Dark Spaces On The Train: The Mail Rail carriages are small and can be dark with sudden noises, so it is worth knowing this ahead if enclosed spaces feel uncomfortable.
