This 1966 Leyland was operated by Harpers of Heath Hayes, Staffordshire until they were taken over by Midland Red, when it eventually became the driver trainer at Leicester. Passing to a group of Midland Fox drivers for preservation a start was made on restoring it to original condition. It was donated to Wythall in late 1997, and repainted back into Harpers livery in 2003.
