SOLVED: si_172 - Henschel-BBC - 6500-II - by LHB - 1951

And here again the trolley bus.
Who were the manufacturers of the chassis and the drive? Who was the coachbuilder? When was it built?
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

Yes, you are absolutely right. And this is your next point. There where only two busse with LHB-body and another two busses with Uerdingen bodies. The other eleven trolley-busses, used in Bremen had bodies by Drauz.
