LR Presse's opinion:
"In recent years, mail wagons have been in the spotlight at several manufacturers. But sometimes it's hard to find your way around... This beautiful album reproduces one of the small notebooks of Robert Nobécourt, a railway enthusiast. After a brief history of rail postal transport in France (with tables on the development of services and explanations of certain special services such as the Malle des Indes), there is a detailed presentation of rail postal equipment from its origins to 1994, illustrated with B&W photos and diagrams. A little book that will delight anyone who wants to find their way around railway postal equipment and learn a little more about its use and history."
