## About This Content
The BR Saint & TPO Livery Pack adds additional liveries to the GWR Saint & TPO
add-on, enabling you to recreate realistic travelling post office operations
in the British Railway era.
Introduced originally by the Great Western Railway, the Travelling Post Office
would set out from London in the dead of night and deliver the post to every
major town, ready for the locals to open in the morning. The concept of the
Travelling Post Office first originated in the 1830s on the Liverpool &
Manchester Railway following an agreement with the General Post Office, and
within the decade it became mandatory that all railways had to carry the mail
in some capacity. The services quickly became known as Travelling Post
Offices, and could either be formed of dedicated mail rolling stock or a
mixture of mail and passenger.
Perhaps the most interesting aspect of the Travelling Post Office is the
rolling stock itself, and how it operates. The Sorting Coach and Baggage Coach
were built from existing rolling stock designs, and would feature dedicated
‘TPO’ interiors, complete with unique mail equipment. The Baggage Coach was
fitted with a net and several mail bag holders, while on the trackside similar
equipment was installed to perform the mail transfer.
At specific locations, workers inside the TPO would prepare the mail bags to
be hung from the side of the coach, and these bags would be collected by a
trackside net. At the same time, any empty mail bags would be returned to the
coach by a similar process. This operation happened while on the move and
allowed for non-stop services throughout the night.
The BR Saint & TPO Livery Pack, which requires the GWR Saint & TPO add-on
(available separately) in order to run, enables realistic mail pick-up and
drop-off in motion. This pack recreates the GWR Saint and Travelling Post
Office as they appeared under British Railways operation. It also includes the
Baggage Coach and Sorting Coach in BR Maroon, BR Corporate Blue/Grey and
Western Mail Red liveries.
