'Moving the Mail' traces the advances in postal transportation technology. The Railway Mail Service revolutionized the way mail was processed by sorting mail aboard moving trains. This exhibit features a re-creation of a railway mail train in its Atrium. The interior fixtures are from a de-commissioned mail car. The exterior portion of the Railway Post Office train was created by Smithsonian artisans.
