Its been on there most days over the last few weeks. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to ride it and there probably won't be another chance after it finishes with Select.

Cannock used to have several of those darts.  Absolutely shit they were, no padding in the seats whatsoever and all of them used to squeak like a cage full of bloody canaries when moving lol

are 2743-5 still in service at cannock as these may be have been made surplus at burton following introduction of new  x 38 pulsars and the versas having been debranded and appear to be staying at Burton?

They could do with keeping them and retiring some darts
