Does anyone know what has happend to the former Midland Red and WMPTE YHA280J is it still about I have footage of the bus at a container base in Brum in the earlt 1980,s the bus was in a shed and at the time it looks as though it was being worked on

In the footage the former BCT JOJ827 tow starts (do not do this at home children ) the former Ribble KCK924, JOJ827 was driven backwards and attached to KCK924 with a chain till the bus start in a cloud of smoke I had hoped to put the footage on to YouTube sadly it is just to dark

Mind you I am still thinking of putting the footage of a D7 towing bus (in yellow) towing a Wolverhampton single decker from Worcester? it may have been another place I aint not never certain
 
Bammot, a nice picture of YHA280J in Midland Red days has been posted here by tardebigge on the Midland Red at Digbeth thread. I've no idea of its after-WMPTE history, but I've left a question at the MidlandRed.net forum. I'll come back here with any answers.
 
Yes, Bammot, I've found it's often very slow, and sometimes you never hear back. I don't think there are many active members. Something's gone wrong with the forum anyway as I can't access it. I get a crazy XML error message.
