Michael Portillo rode the Post Office Railway during one of his recent
Great British Railway Journeys Series 3 programmes. It was described
as a 'secret miniature railway under London.' However it closed in the
mid-2000s. So is it mothballed and kept in working orderf in case it
is needed again? Moot point. CJB.

Before closure, it was open to organised visits. Fascinating system.

After closure it was open to some clandestine visitors...
