What does TPO mean?<\/h2>\n

TPO is the abbreviation for Travelling Post Office<\/strong>, a type of mobile post office in the form of a mail train. The train was used prominently used in Great Britain and Ireland during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.<\/p>\n

These post offices used to sort the mails while they travelled at speeds of 60-70 mph, dispatching them to different towns on their route.

Large bags of mail were suspended on large nets hung from the side of trains, meanwhile depositing mail bags into trackside nets. The exchange of emails in this way continued and the number of exchange points reached 250 by 1913.<\/p>\n
