From ducks, to vikings, and even bakery-scented baguettes - Royal Mail have released many exciting stamps over the years.

And now, theres a new set to look out for... Train fans, this one is for you!

Royal Mail has announced a set of new stamps to celebrate the heritage of the UK's railway system.

The stamps feature locomotives (the rail vehicles that pull trains) that have shaped the history of rail travel in Britain.
