80300 was the first of 96 Post Office sorting vans built between 1959 and 1977 for use in travelling post offices.[1]
As of 2016[update], it is on long term display at The Engine House with the interior accessible to the public. Before the opening of the Engine House, 80300 was used as the visitor centre at Highley.
