Diamond East Midlands (formerly Midland Classic)

Just going off your fleet list for Midland Classic - you have a section of: 'withdrawn vehicles are also believed to be owned'

Under which you list WDA 4T - Just to confirm they do or did own this vehicle - but it is now at Whytall Transport Museum - I took this photograph of it there - not the best - but it was stuck between two others :)

Just thought you might be interested :)

As far as I am aware, WDA 4T is now owned privately and has been for a while. She is just stored at Bammot. The owners plans to eventually restore it to WMPTE livery.

Is anyone able to confirm which of the 'vehicles still thought to be owned' are still actually with Midland Classic?

Why did they get rid of the 57/08 plate volvos?
