In 1947, a car post office appeared in Nanjing, China. It had three old cars with green postal signs. Each car had three windows. The first window sold stamps and envelopes, the second collected registered and express mail, and the third handled telegrams. The cars traveled on three routes and stopped at each station for half an hour to serve nearby companies, schools, and residents. The car post office provided convenience and became a scenery in Nanjing. However, car post offices in Shanghai, Beijing, Tianjin, Guangzhou, and others were later closed for various reasons. 你听说过汽车邮局吗? 1947年3月在江苏南京出现了中国的一家汽车邮局 很多南京人都记得汽车邮局有三辆老式汽车 每辆车的车身上写着绿色的邮子 汽车右边有三个窗口 第一个窗口出售邮票和信封 第二个窗口收集挂号、航空快递邮件、办理小额汇款 第三个窗口办理电报业务 这三辆汽车分东、北、西南三条路线 选择离邮局比较远的地方 像公共汽车一样,每到一站停留半个小时 为附近的公司、学校和老百姓办理各种邮政业务 南京的汽车邮局为百姓提供了方便 成为南京街头的一道风景 那以后,上海、北京、天津、广州等等也先后设立了汽车邮局 不过,这些汽车邮局在其年后邮局的各种原因都停办了
