On what basis was this bus built and by whom? When was that?
Ein Henschel zieht am Berg und ein Mercedes
an den Türen. (and an attempt of a translation):
A Henschel in rushing up the hill, wheras in a Mercedes wind is rushing through the doors. c/o norberthanke

Volvo by Hess ?

sichel

Saurer? No
Volvo? Yes
Hess? Partly, but Hess was not the only coachbuilder involved in this project. Locked for pguillem for three attempts to vlear the open questions.

Ranseier & Jenzer ?

Just to be sure..
Is it one of the small batch of B58-55 delivered to Luzern in 1974 (maybe fleet number
102)?
Does Hess VST Einheits fits the bill?

sichel

Yes, it's a Volvo B58-55, locked for you, please be patient until the weekend for the final solution. I'm travelling and forgot the shelf with the source at home.

sichel

Yes, the same Volvo chassis was used for the trolleybuses and the diesel buses. The puzzle bus is one of the 10 diesel buses that were purchased in 1973/74. However, two other coachbuilders were involved in its construction. Locked for three attempts to name them.

Spent hours on this one with no results.
Only thing I found there was collaboration with Ramseier Jenzer, Gangloff and Tuscher,
but that was already discoverd by Pguillem.
Please unlock.

sichel

Ramseier Jenzer, Gangloff and Tuscher was a consortium for trolleybuses.
Unlocked, too bad.
