I do not know if they have ordered this vehicle.

But they definitly did not construct and build it.

Is it perhaps a Wolff Walsrohe job?

No.

I think I´ve got to help with this one.

BIIIG HINT:

The company is still quite well known for having built trucks for many decades.

Henschel und Sohn?

Good guess, but it is a truck building company normally not being connected to trains of all kind.

So it is not Henschel.

LOCKED for you!

give me the correct year and you´ll have the point.

Because Büssing wasn´t too hard to find really, I give you two guesses.

Either you´re right or I´ll say earlier or later...

I find nothing to help me guessing, so I go for 1956 as there might be a Büssing Schienenbus behind.

It would be interesting to know whether a Büssing engine was used.
