GWR Route: Banbury to Wolverhampton

GWR Official Publications: gwrsh67

Three pages from a Great Western Railway leaflet dated January 1937. Competition from coaches meant that cheap travel rates were no longer limited to half day, single day or weekend excursions, but were available for longer periods. A first class monthly return ticket was also available at 50% more than the third class fare and destinations on other railway company networks included. Holiday tickets for the Channel Islands and Ireland were valid for a fortnight, while Holiday Season Tickets giving a week's unlimited travel in a specific holiday area were also available.
