Post buses were introduced more than 40 years ago. In 1967, in the aftermath of major cuts to rural rail services across many parts of the UK, Royal Mail suggested that post vehicles which criss-crossed remote rural areas could help ease public transport problems, while covering some of the costs in collecting and delivering the mail at the same time.
