ALL of the 13xx darts are awful. I've driven all of them at Darlington now (1306 yesterday being the latest) and they are an embarrassment in every single way. At the very least they all need new engines, but realistically they have just sent better for scrap. 1308 arrived in Darlington 20 mins late this afternoon and got taken out of service, it is by far the worst of the bunch.
The Darts have been good servants but they are now past it and there should have been a bidding war for those Enviro 200's that Durham have ended up with.
Rant Over!
