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

Deutsche Bahn

I do not know if they have ordered this vehicle.

But they definitly did not construct and build it.

targhediferro · « **Reply #4 on:** May 04, 2013, 06:25:52 PM »

Is it perhaps a Wolff Walsrohe job?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #5 on:** May 05, 2013, 01:40:49 AM »

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.

Beilhack?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #7 on:** May 05, 2013, 05:50:11 AM »

No.

And the company is better known.

Henschel und Sohn?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #10 on:** May 10, 2013, 02:06:05 PM »

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

So it is not Henschel.

Magirus?

M.A.N.?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #14 on:** May 10, 2013, 02:37:44 PM »

No...

Now there are not too many better known ones left

Wendax · « **Reply #15 on:** May 10, 2013, 02:38:54 PM »

Krupp?

Allemano · « **Reply #16 on:** May 10, 2013, 02:40:34 PM »

Büssing, then?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #17 on:** May 13, 2013, 01:37:23 PM »

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 · « **Reply #18 on:** May 13, 2013, 02:05:09 PM »

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

grobmotorix · « **Reply #19 on:** May 14, 2013, 12:26:07 PM »

Earlier.

Allemano · « **Reply #20 on:** May 14, 2013, 12:32:42 PM »

1953?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #21 on:** May 14, 2013, 01:01:34 PM »

Bam!

Wendax · « **Reply #22 on:** May 14, 2013, 01:49:40 PM »

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

grobmotorix · « **Reply #23 on:** May 14, 2013, 03:38:34 PM »

Me too!
