Very cool! And I'd be willing to bet that that footage is more interesting and coherent than Magical Mystery Tour itself!

Hmm.. somehow Out Of Me Head became the author of this thread! Apparently, I should have done more copy/paste.

I think I've been on that very same bus! Went to Liverpool in 1985 or 1986, and it was sitting around in a great state of disrepair, I think someone had just bought it to start tours with. OMG!

I hadn't known about "Magical Mystery Tour Memories." Might be worth a look. :)

The thread you made already existed. I have merged the two.

It wouldn't be the actual bus unfortunetly! the real one is in America, I've forgotten where though! the one used for Magical Mystery Tour tours of liverpool are copies, but one of them was used in the "Free As A Bird" video! :)

Now, I was there in the mid-80's. Maybe the original was still in Liverpool then?

Or wilt thou dash my hopes on the rocky shores of truth once again?

According to this, the original is at the Hard Rock Cafe in New York. Sorry....
