Metro Tas #238 weird noise

Post by ScaniaL94UB »

Hi,

I was just wondering if other people have heard it, but there is a really annoying strange noise, it sounds like someone breathing through a gas mask very heavily. Especially Tas Bus Nut or yoda you guys may have driven it and noticed it. :?: :?: :? :?

Personally I avoid those NCBC snot boxes like the plague.
Two things it could be - air conditioning or the alternator hum through the FM stereo.

Excluding shunting in the yard, think the last time I was in one of those was at least 2-3 months ago.

Personally I would say #240- upwards are the best out of the NCBCs.

Sadly I've been lugged with 3 of them this week - 241, 232 and 219.
