There is a flurry on Twitter about our Camping Coaches poster. Just to confirm, it IS an original dating back to 1957. Most people over a certain age will remember these rather eccentric holiday homes- actually you don't have to be very old; I believe there is still one at St Germans station (Cornwall) today!
We have had numerous keen Great Western Railway enthusiasts here to see our posters and one visitor told me that GWR provided the Camping Coaches that were taken up to Wales, so he thought that the glorious scenery beyond the GWR coach is probably the Welsh Mountains.
The poster came from the Great Western Publicity Department at Paddington.
