Notes on NVR Railway Letter Stamps

Railway Letter Services were started in 1891 under an agreement between the

Postmaster General and seventy five railway companies. It was established to

send letters to places accessible by rail but which were ill served by the GPO.

Letters had to bear a normal GPO (now Royal Mail) postage stamp in addition

to a stamp issued by the railway company.

The service was withdrawn by British Rail in 1984 but a service operated by

Minor Railways through an agreement made in 1974 between the Post Office

and the Association of Minor Railways, now the Heritage Railway Association.

The current railway letter fee is 25p. NVR is an active participant in this

scheme, issues its own stamps, covers and cancellation marks.

NVR issued its first stamp on 4th June 1896 and its stamps and covers are widely

collected as bona fide postal items and memorabilia.
