The attraction, London’s first new museum in a decade, opened in September 2017, and welcomed 15,500 visitors in October 2017 alone. Fast forward to 2015, and the Postal Museum took over a section of the line with a vision for an exceptional legacy – turning Mail Rail into a unique museum where visitors could take a journey through history. When Mail Rail stopped operating in 2003 as a result of post office closures and cheaper road transport, a handful of engineers kept it in good condition just in case it was ever needed again. Now, thanks to Digital Projection’s award-winning laser projection systems, Mail Rail has been transformed into an exceptional and unique visitor attraction, preserving this important piece of British history and sharing it with generations to come via an immersive, innovative and impactful exhibition. For more than 75 years, London’s underground postal railway - Mail Rail - has been a vital artery in Britain’s communication network, hidden from view.
