I believe that should have been a DAF SB120 then - but with it being so long ago, I don't have anything to back that up though.
Both the morning and evening journeys were covered by the DAF SB120s (I used to see the morning ones every day, and I remember discussion on this forum at the time regarding the interworking on evenings too).
The lettered variations of service 38 were introduced in November 2012 - can't recall off the top of my head when they were dropped...
Found more details on the "SimpliCity" working of the short X35 on the photo below:
