A RAILWAY carriage which transported post, cider and golfers across the country during its lifetime will now spend its retirement hosting cream teas in York.
The National Railway Museum has opened its newest attraction The Countess of York, a fully refurbished 1956-built carriage, restored to mimic 19th century travel.
To celebrate the launch of the carriage, which will be servicing lunches and cream teas, staff at the museum donned costumes in keeping with the era. [From Richard Buckby]
