Not Döbeln, but the direction is better now.

No, moving too far away now

I thought you would say that.  Let's try the another direction.  How about Bitterfeld-Wolfen?

I'm still trying to nail down the geography.  Based on your previous comment, was (is?) the coachbuilder located northwest of Leipzig, in the general direction of Halle (Saale)?

No, I said that going from Leipzig in the Döbeln direction is the best guess yet.

I'm sorry, my geography failed me.  I was thinking that Döbeln was northwest of Leipzig, but I now see that it is actually in the opposite direction, southeast toward Dresden.  So was (is?) the coachbuilder located in, or near, Wurzen?
