Deleteකඳුකර ප්‍රදේශවල තමයි මේක වැඩිපුර දිව්වේ. පරණ බස්වලින් දැනට දකින්න තියෙන්නෙත් බෙන්ස් එක විතරයි.
ReplyDeleteමීට සමකාලීන ෆියට් බස් එකක් තවම ධාවනය කල හැකි මට්ටමේ තිබෙනවා. මේ අඩවියේ බස් වර්ග කියන පිටුවට ගිහින් FIat click කරන්න. එතකොට ඔ‍බට දැකගත හැකී බස් එක. :)

DeleteTo shed light on OM 312 buses C.T.B perched 165 buses from Germany in 1957 for 3 million Rupees. (source UK). The all metal body done by Voll (pronounce foll) in Germany.They were the top of the range @ that time. in Ceylon.(SL) The curved front & back was the norm then for nice look & reduce wind pressure at front for spreed & better fuel consumption (less drag). The engine was OM 312, 6 Cylinder Indirection Diesel meaning ,engine had to be Preheat before starting. Max power was around 120 ps (German horsepower) @ 3000 R.P.M. Torque not known. ZF 4speed gearbox had 3 speed synchronized. no power steering but ZF recirculating ball type steering was the best @ that time. The ivory colored steering wheel had a chromed center ring for horn & indicators. Compressed- air assisted drum breaks front & back. The front passenger side door was air operated by the driver, the back one done by hand. All electrics by Bosch, mechanical voltage regulator & dc dynamo for battery charging. Instrument panel had speedometer, water temperature, oil pressure, air pressure & amp meter all by VDO. leaf spring suspension with dampers for front & back live axles. Original inside colors were really good. Lucky I used to go to school by those fantastic buses. Any renaming buses now 57 years old, One bus must be in the museum for future generation. Next time when I visit Sri-Lanka I try to see them. cheers.
