ca 1913 Flag of ROC 1c PSC posted at Peking-Moukden TPO to Chinwangtao, tied by “Peking Moukden / Mail Car / 13” circular h.s. Stephen Yen stated that post office rents a carriage when the mail volume is high. Mails posted on the train would be applied with this type of h.s. Examples are rare. 約1913年五色旗1分郵資片，經京奉鐵路寄秦皇島，銷少見之“京奉 / 信車 / 十三”三格圓戳。嚴平西指郵務量高時，郵政會向鐵路局租用一節專車。車上投遞之郵件會使用此無日期圓戳，但此情況並不多見，甚為難得。

1915-18 a pair of card/cover to Europe. The 1915 PC to Italy specified “via America” but was censored in Russia, indicating trans-Siberia route was still operative. The 1918 registered cover to Denmark specified “via Siberia” but with New York transit, obviously took the American rout instead. Censored twice. Contrasting pair. 1915-18，兩件經“京奉行動郵局”歐洲寄信，貼夏威夷或農票，1915年一件寄意大利，記載“經美洲郵路”，但接受俄羅斯檢查，證明實際上走西伯利亞郵路。另一件掛號信寄丹麥，記載“經西伯利亞郵路”，實際上經紐約，接受兩次檢查。
