What a picture! Found this old image at a postcard fair a few years ago. Just a little digging around turns up the White Rose Motor Services Company which was founded in Rhyl in 1912 by the Brookes Brothers. They ran charabanc trips to local beauty spots and they became incredibly popular. The fleet eventually numbered just under 100 buses and coaches by the time they were taken over in 1930.
Note the speed limit, bottom left on the charabanc ... and those kids - what on earth are they doing?
