Written "in haste," this postcard was mailed on the train using the railway post office car first introduced in 1864. The Railway Mail Service (here represented in the postmark by "R.P.O." and the number of the train, 13), which sorted mail en route, operated until the last route was discontinued in 1977. In later years the Railway Mail Service had its own cancellation mark.
