Today, the Army Logistics Center Vienna transported the Lohner-Motormuli of ÖBB-Postbus Ltd from its Salzburg home to Vienna. This unique vehicle was manufactured in 1951, fitted with a body from the Lohner works and utilized in Tyrol until 1956, mainly for transporting tourists on the Arlberg. Today, it is still property of the Austrian Postal Service (now ÖBB-Postbus Ltd), in 2003 it was overhauled by the Army Workshops in the Vienna Arsenal, and it is normally kept in a garage in Salzburg.

Today our second Motormuli M80 has returned from its winter-overhaul and is now ready for Display at „On Wheels and Tracks“. Over the winter-months Johann Hetterle has given „his“ old Muli the necessary love, and on April 27 Jakob Pfeffer transported it back to our garages in Prottes. We are looking forward to presenting the „Muli-Population“ at the Vienna Museum for Military History in four weeks!

Two weeks are left until the 12th big military vehicle gathering of the Vienna Museum of Military History „On Wheels and Tracks“, and we are starting our transports. The following days will see the arrival of the whole Steyr truck family from Type 380 via 480, 580, 680 to 12M18 together with some rare prototypes and the „small brothers" Haflinger and Pinzgauer. Some rare treats will complete this year’s special presentation.

For the first time this year’s Edition of „On Wheels and Tracks“ – the main gathering of historic Military Vehicles in Vienna – will commence on Friday already. Interested visitors will have the chance to see first-hand the arrival of the tanks as well as the heavy vehicle setup.

Saturday 9 am till 10 pm and Sunday 9 am till 5 pm we will again be running the already well established program with presentations of the tracked and wheeled vehicles and informal get-togethers.
