Summary/Abstract: The begginings and development of the Romanian National Railway Company allowed the Romanian Post Administration, to adapt and develop the transport of all postal effects.The researchers of Post History paid great attention to the railway postal activity. On a national level, we must mention Kiriac Dragomir, Barbu Popescu and călin Marinescu, among the most prominent researchers, as well Dorel Țanu and Mihai Ceucă- on a local level. I was particularly concerned with collecting and studying postal history materials, concern wich materialized in two exhibit-collections: ROMANIA, BACĂU- POSTAL HISTORY PAGES (with excerpts published in ”Carpica”, 2015) and ROMANIA, BACĂU COUNTY RAILWAY 1870-1910. Both collection have been very well welcomed, both nationally and internationally.
