National Railway Museum York Dec 2017 update

I’m pleased to report that the NRM shop at York is still stocking a wide variety of postcards – perhaps the widest variety of shapes and sizes ever.

The largest ( A5) shows a view from 2013’s great gathering of A4 locos. Barcode ref 5021043 1600211

Then slightly larger than the standard postcards we have 3D postcards and jigsaw postcards. The wooden postcards noted a few years back are still available too.

As for standard postcards there are a large variety of poster views which have been available for some years. There are two new series:

404239 ,406246, 406253 & 406260 ( first 5 digits are the serial numbers and the final digit appears to be a check digit)
