Before that swine Doctor Beeching produced his infamous report on the British railways the country was awash with independent companies competing to take the common man and his family wherever he wanted. Selling glamour, fun and sun there were thousands of advertising posters produced and this site houses a fantastic collection that are for sale.
Note the fantastic artwork circa 1930, long before any child could hit the vectorise button. There's some pretty nice stuff in the other categories too.
