Post Offices only appear in [[Ages#EraII|'''Era II''']], the Steam Era. During the transition between [[Ages#EraI|Era I]] and [[Ages#EraII|Era II]], post offices will appear in each towns across the map.
Mail delivery follows the same rule rules as passenger delivery, depending on the '''Passenger Destination''' parameter in [[Game Settings#Advanced|'''Game Settings''']]. The transfer between different trucks and trains happens automatically similar to tranfer of the passengers. '''Do not use Full load / unload Unload commands for mail.'''
==Processes==
Once a post office is within the catchment area of a station, two processes will begin. The first process takes Mail [[File:icon mail.png|16px]] that has been delivered to the station, takes it to the post office and converts it into Money Tokens [[File:token money.png|16px]] at a rate of 1 piece of Mail [[File:icon mail.png|16px]] for 3 Money Tokens [[File:token money.png|16px]] per 80 squares of distance traveled.
The second process produces 1-4 pieces of Mail [[File:icon mail.png|16px]] per 2 [[Game tick|'''game ticks''']], this . The Mail is then sent to the nearby station, ready for collection by a train pulling [[Wagons#Mail|'''Mail Wagons''']] or by [[Road_vehicles#Mail_Vehicles|'''Mail carrying trucks''']].
The number of Mail [[File:icon mail.png|16px]] produced depends on the level of the Post office. Post office has 3 levels changing automatically as your city growth. Moreover, at level 3 there is an extra electrification bonus [[File:e_energy.png|16px]] if you connect the Post Office to your electrical network [[File:e_energy.png|16px]].
