Who knows who has constructed this double headed Volkswagen T1 draisine?

Deutsche Bahn

[grobmotorix]

I do not know if they have ordered this vehicle.

But they definitly did not construct and build it.

[targhediferro]

Is it perhaps a Wolff Walsrohe job?

[grobmotorix]

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.

[kwgibbs]

Beilhack?

[grobmotorix]

No.

And the company is better known.

Henschel und Sohn?

[grobmotorix]

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

So it is not Henschel.

[Wendax]

Magirus?

[grobmotorix]

No.

[Allemano]

M.A.N.?

[grobmotorix]

No...

Now there are not too many better known ones left 

[Wendax]

Krupp?

[Allemano]

Büssing, then?

[grobmotorix]

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...

[Allemano]

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

[grobmotorix]

Earlier.

[Allemano]

1953?

[grobmotorix]

Bam!

[Wendax]

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

[grobmotorix]

Me too!
