i remembered few years back before 838H went to serve 172 , it actually serve 365 before 365 was renumbered to 945Originally posted by TIB1018B:It went to service 960 after service 960 was introduced in July 1996. After which it became a perm on service 176 for several years. It was then transferred to serve service 172 when bendies were introduced to service 172 in 2003.
Yes, it's located at the back, but I'm not sure what it really is for. Part of a modified air-conditioner, maybe, but it doesn't seem like a complete replacement for the air-conditioning itself, or else the original air-conditioning pods in the front could have been removed.Originally posted by SBS3625D:The pod is an aircon right? And it's located at the back?
The OAC Scanias I think have undercarriage A/C... That's why the original A/C on the roof is much smaller. Maybe it's just to house the filter?Originally posted by eX.A.K.R.:Yes, it's located at the back, but I'm not sure what it really is for.

The underlined part is the Air Intake valve for the Air Con. Not the compressor... the compresser is above in the little pod.Originally posted by stooper:The OAC Scanias I think have undercarriage A/C... That's why the original A/C on the roof is much smaller. Maybe it's just to house the filter?
Also, when you compare with CAC/NAC Scanias, you'll see one extra grille on the driver's side of the bus. I think the A/C compressor is located there.
Its a Carrier AC unit, apparently the original's spoilt.Originally posted by eX.A.K.R.:Yes, it's located at the back, but I'm not sure what it really is for.

I have seen it (but never took it) running on routes 39, 2 and 354 before, and I wonder where will it go after being transferred to AMDEP...
