Description: | During the Second World War, unnecessary travel was discouraged. The promotion of London Transport services moved away from its commercial function to adopt a new wartime role. Posters and adverts were used to publicise service and procedure changes, disseminate new safety information and boost staff morale.
This press advert asks passengers to assist in the war effort by travelling during off-peak hours where possible. This would permit the best possible service for war workers. The advert appeared in the News Chronicle, Daily Mail and Daily Herald, in 1942. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Transport for London | Subjects: | Transport London at War | Temporal: | 1942 | Source: | London Transport Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
