That's a cracking shot Richard. I don't think these long low-floor
Darts are the best choice for the 154.

Looks worse than the hairpin at Southgate on the 100/(2)44!

Hi
 
I agree with barrie on this, think one of first cymru's shorter darts or even a optare solo would be much better for service 154.
 
driver certainly had good skills getting that dart round that corner though.
 
thanks
 
anthony

An even longer 10.9m ALX200 has done it before
