I saw something on a show called Mysteries of the Abandoned about a big tunnel system with small rail cars that were used for mail delivery in London. It was pretty cool. They could deliver letters in mere minutes to a couple hours depending on priority.
It was abandoned when the interwebz and email came about.
Well some good news on that underground railway it’s been reopened for tourists and they’ve gotta dedicated museum to the history of the mail service
I’ll post up some photos later of the narrow gauge rails 2ft and the carriage ps and tunnels
