    Hi all,

    Next weekend the NVR are putting on an Autumn TPO and Great Train Robbery Weekend.

    This will feature a series of mail drops behind class 31 31108, a class closely associated with the TPO's history.

    We also have under restoration M30272M, the only surviving vehicle from The Great Train Robbery. To mark the 50th anniversary of the robbery we are hosting a display on the event courtesy of the British Postal Museum & Archive. We will also have talks each day on the history of the event and the restoration of M30272M.

    On Saturday evening we are having a free photo session with the TPO set doing a number of exchanges in the twilight with additional flood lighting. (Though any donations are obviously appreciated). This replaces the previously advertised charter with 73050.
