The Cornwall Darts were a welcomed eddition to the fleet at Dukinfield and to be honest I prefer them to the Streetlights. They seem to cope really well even on the 348/350. The only annoying thing is them red interior lights that make it look like a mobile brothel

It's a pity more of these type of Darts carnt be sourced for Oldham and Dukinfield as a replacement for the older Solos and Marshall darts. Although I'm not a big fan some Enviro200's similar to Stagecoach Manchester have would be ok for midi/mini services.
