s13a ◊ 2020-11-20 19:19	The badges on the front look like those of the coachbuilder H. Höglund & Co., later known as Säffle Karosserifabrik AB. Similar (later) badge with Säffle Lättmetall written on it. -- Last edit: 2020-11-20 19:28:55
Jale ◊ 2020-11-20 19:46	Not just Säffle? (from https://forum.omnibuss.se/index.php?topic=42339.0 )

Jale ◊ 2020-11-20 20:52	I mean - this design seems to be later, when it was Säffle rather than Höglund...
s13a ◊ 2020-11-20 21:33	I'm not sure when exactly did 'Säffle', 'Säffle Karosserifabrik' or 'Säffle Karosseri AB' renamed themselves like that. According to svenskbusshistoria, several operating buses with the H. Höglund & Co name were in use as late as the late 1970s. The badge 'Säffle Lättmetall' already existed in the older era of H. Höglund & Co. (1940s? 1950s?): Link to "www.tradera.com"
Animatronixx ◊ 2020-11-20 22:40	Clearly out of my comfort zone here, but this 1966 Scania-Vabis D11R21 comes pretty close and in my understanding they were still H. Höglund & Co of Säffle, Sweden, back then.
Jale ◊ 2020-11-20 22:51	Name changed from H. Höglund & Co to Säffle Karosseri in 1981... http://www.safflehembygd.se/Karossen%20flygblad.pdf https://forum.omnibuss.se/index.php?topic=9463.0 But then - we have older buses described as Säffle, not Höglund -- Last edit: 2020-11-20 23:54:00 (dsl)

s13a ◊ 2020-11-20 23:06	Jale wrote But then - we have older buses described as Säffle, not Höglund: But even for this 1950 example, the svenskbusshistoria page lists the coachbuilder as H. Höglund & Co, not Säffle.
maxp ◊ 2020-11-21 10:50	You don´t use the name Daimler Benz AG about Mercedes-Benz cars here. Pure swedes say "Säffle". This Säffle-body was still current 1966 when Volvo B58 was introduced. One example is DOT139 owned by Värmlands Bussveteraner. -- Last edit: 2020-11-21 21:12:40
s13a ◊ 2020-11-21 11:50	@maxp, from Jale's link: Quote Gunnar Höglund avled sommaren 1981. Dödsboet sålde företaget till AB Volvo. Företaget hette innan övertagendet H.Höglunds karosseriAB. Karossen kallades Höglundskaross. Förkortas ibland Hög i SJ papper. (Helge=H troligen ) Google translated: Quote Gunnar Höglund died in the summer of 1981. The estate sold the company to AB Volvo. Before the takeover, the company was called H.Höglunds karosseriAB. The body was called Höglundskaross. Sometimes abbreviated Hög in SJ paper. (Weekend = H probably) To my understanding, buses that were built before the takover in 1981, were still officially designated with Höglund name. Your mentioned DOT139 Volvo B58 is listed with the Höglund bodywork as well: https://www.svenskbusshistoria.se/go/?id=17691

maxp ◊ 2020-11-21 21:18	When watching that film i found the number BRB282 which is 1965 Scania-Vabis BF 5659. Body H.Höglund Säffle .
johnfromstaffs ◊ 2020-11-21 21:23	Is there any connection between Höglund and Hagglund in Swedish?
atom ◊ 2020-11-21 21:45	They are surnames. Hög means high, tall, loud or tumulus. Hägg is the bird cherry tree and Lund is a Grove. So Höglund would mean 'The Grove on a high location' and Hägglund would mean something like 'The Grove in the bird cherry trees'.
johnfromstaffs ◊ 2020-11-21 22:28	Thank you, the fact that they were both coachbuilders is therefore coincidental. I have spent some time in Ornskjoldsvik in January. It is cold.
