dunno bout above supplied buses....but i thnk the engine and gearbox combo of TATA is very reliable.... i hail from Darjeeling....we had logging business till 95 there....we never had any failure...we had 13 of them...with 12 with cummins engine and 2 a 4wheel drive version...with original mercedes 312 engine...

It operated flawlessly at 9k feet in cold winter and in jungles.....well places there were no roads....and u urself can imagine the loads...

2nos. 312 were older than me and bought b4 i was born...!
