For today's #CoSoBuses toot we have an extraurban bus that hasn't been successful only because of the well established competitors, the BredaMenariniBus Lander. It was equipped with a MAN D2066 LUH43 Euro 5 EEV engine (6-cylinder, 10518 cm³/648.4 cu in, 265 kW/360 PS) and a 4-speed Voith DIWA 864.5 automatic gearbox or a 6-speed ZF manual. In this pic there is the Lander n°4527 of AMT Genova (formerly ATP Carasco) on the former line 15, now renumbered as 715.
@elleci42a I'm stuck on the headlamps. I guess they're LED? I bet they look amazing at night!
@researchbuzz I don't know to be honest
@researchbuzz ATP Carasco was a extraurban public transport company who served the whole province of Genova and also parts of the province of La Spezia. In 2021 AMT Genova bought a majority stake in the company and then merged it. The renumbering of the ex-ATP lines (7xx and 8xx) was caused by the fact there were a lot of conflicts with the AMT Genova urban lines. One of those BredaMenariniBus Lander was converted to the dual fuel system Diesel-CNG
