The day out by coach was something which the whole family enjoyed, and lots of thought went in to the planning of the day tours programmes.
Whether it was to a stately home or the seaside with bucket and spade, to a new feat of engineering or tour of the ocuntryside, the coach firms used to put out their newest coaches (and sometimes some old bangers) for the trips.
