This FBW bus from 1951 was previously used to transport guests for weddings, before that it served as a postbus in the Swiss mountains. The bus delivered the mail to the people who lived in the mountains and also offered them the opportunity to get in and ride to the village. In the winter the bus was given another task, keeping the route up the mountain free of snow, for which it was equipped with a snow plow.
The bus is in good condition, both technically and optically. The bus has a nice cream paint job with blue details. The bus also looks neat on the inside, it is equipped with benches that originally came from an English double-decker but also come into their own in this postbus. There is a passenger transport permit on this bus, the bus is approved for the transport of 30 people excluding the driver.
The engine of the bus runs nicely and starts immediately when started. The bus is equipped with an air start system and therefore does not need electricity to start. The bus is equipped with a gearbox with high and low gearing which he needed in the mountains, in the Netherlands the high gearing is sufficient to drive around. The bus has an unsynchronized gearbox with 4 gears. This bus can keep up with traffic and can drive 80km/h.
