I live on the island of Malta and we still use the word xarabank for busses. It is a corruption of the word charabanc.

There are still charabancs being produced today .
Generally by double decker bus drivers trying to negotiate low bridges

I lived in SE England in the 60’s and a “charabang” was what my grandparents called a coach trip to the seaside. After 1970, I never heard the word again.

Used in Rhondda Valleys, South Wales by my grandparents generation (born in 1920s), annual day trips to seaside.

I'm from England and never heard of this before! Nice to learn something new.

I always thought it was a slang word from my Grans generation.
