I need to re-watch that in its entirety with a good headset. Wonder how a Voith persuaded (probably manually) into 1st would compare?
The sound quality isn't all that great but you get the MAN RENK experience in spades! Not to mention the hub melody.
A handfull of these recieved a VOITH by mistake I read and I'm pretty sure you would have no trouble overtaking one of these RENK beauties up that hill in first gear.

The closest I found was some service literature (in German, of course) for sale - unfortunately I don't understand German, so that wouldn't be money well spent!
Google lense and others will read text now, allowing you to then use a translate programme.


Try out this mark 2 at Torrens Transit.

Quite right! In the past I've watched videos on that channel of the SG192 to try and figure out how those might've sounded.

I hope no ambulance was required.
That STULB front was so ahead of it's time.
