  1782X is now a training bus, though it has its Ez-link there. 3624G whcih became training bus briefly last year had its vaildator taken off, IDFC, AVMS-DDU, BEXPs still there, so I dunno whether 1782X had its vaildator taken off or not.

  Its hard to determine which training bus is at which depot, from time to time, you see them shifting from one depot from another, excluding bram. bram used to be home to 81S and either 774B or 777T and the Mercs, but these buses subsequently gone somewhere else and training buses seldom park in bram after that. One way is to check arbp, rumored to be home of temporary training buses like 3573U, 3624G.

  3839D uses Sutrak. Many buses use Denso.

  No SBST Mercs besides 999U uses Denso, There are three kinds of air con, one is Webasto, the other is also Webasto and the third Sutrak. One of the Webasto is the one with two vents, the other has three vents. How to see whether its a Webasto, look on top of the air con where the fans/rotor are, there will be a Webasto word above each rotor.

  Ah most Mk2s don't use Sutrak air con only 1696L and the early 17XX DMs use Sutrak (3 vents) and 1881T (underfloor) 1888A (half underfloor half above (like Scania OAC, just that Scania OAC'svents are below and 1888A one is on top), the rest Use Cool air (4 vents). 1713X uses an older Denso (like 999U), 1714T has an older Sutrak Aircon. WA Mk2s except 1696L use Denso.

  There are also MKIIs that use another kind of Sutrak right? One with 4 vents? Examples would be 1733M if I'm not mistaken.
  
  I believe 1696L is the only MKII with a centrally mounted Sutrak unit.
