New 'virtual' experience will allow people to enjoy Mail Rail without riding train
Briefly

The Postal Museum is set to undergo a £1 million revamp of its Mail Rail exhibition by 2027, coinciding with the attraction's 100th anniversary. Key features include an immersive projection space and enhanced multimedia guides for better accessibility, especially for disabled visitors. The project aims to include new audiovisual experiences, improved narratives for d/Deaf and blind audiences, and enriched visual displays. Funded by the Post Office Remembrance Fellowship and Arts Council England, the initiative emphasizes expanding access to historical insights of the Mail Rail.
We’re delighted to support The Postal Museum to improve access to their Mail Rail ride and to share the stories of the GPO workers that kept the mail moving through its 100-year operation.
We’ve long wanted to improve the accessibility of Mail Rail for a much wider audience, particularly for those with disabilities, to ensure everyone can experience this historical journey.
