    ...it should also probably be added to the narrow gauge section

    I'm lucky enough to be on one of the boards of the Postal Museum, archive and Mail Rail.
    There's a lot more to it all than just the ride - look out for a lot of interesting archive stuff coming out of the Postal Museum over the next year as it gears up to opening. Edward Bawden's 1935 linocut is one such lovely item. If you'd like to see progress, www.postalmuseum.org is a good place to start.
