In this wonderful Coronation summer of 1937, a feature of the Home railway passenger bookings is the enormous popularity of the combined rail-road-steamer tours operated by the four group lines. To meet the needs of the times, the railways have introduced extensive programmes of tours for combined rail, road and steamer itineraries, covering sight-seeing journeys throughout almost every corner of the land. Apart from the universal “penny-a-mile” monthly return tickets, there have been placed at page 20 page 21 the disposal of the traveller special circular tour tickets covering long or short journeys at fares about twenty-five per cent, less than the ordinary single tickets for third-class, with corresponding cuts for first-class travel. These tickets work out at approximately fifteen shillings for 150 miles third-class, or 22s. 6d. for a similar distance first-class. A tour of 500 miles thus costs, roughly, 50s. third-class, or 75s. first-class, 1,000-mile rail tours of the Homeland costing £5 third-class and £7/10/0 first-class. Unlike some lands, where holders of cheap tickets are not permitted to travel by many of the faster trains, in Britain almost every crack train, such as the “Flying Scotsman,” the “Royal Scot,” and the “Cornish Riviera Limited,” is available to the tourist taking advantage of the specially cut fares.
