Dennis Darts with Northern Counties Bodies

Kowloon Motor Bus (KMB) purchased 11 Darts with Northern Counties Paladin body and 6 of them (AA43-48) subsequently entered service since late-1995. In March 1997, when the Lok Ma Chau - Huanggang Cross-Border Shuttle Bus service commenced, among the mentioned 6 buses, 5 of them (AA43-47) were then withdrawn from service in KMB and became members of the Cross-Border bus fleet with the remaining 5 that had never been registered. AA48 then became the one and only one Northern Counties bus in KMB fleet.

In additions, 3 Darts with the same type of body were purchased by Kowloon Canton Railway Corporation (KCRC) Bus Division.
