Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

AFORM of construction widely used on the Continent and in the United States is to be embodied in 50 new Leyland Tiger Cub 45-seat buses for Edinburgh Transport Department. The new design makes use, of solid-riveted structures in place of the more usual stressed member concealed by a decorative outside skin. A prototype has been operating in Edinburgh for seven years and has proved robust and inexpensive to maintain.

The fleet, which is due for delivery within a few months, will be powered by Leyland 0.375 oil engines, developing 110 b.h.p. at 2,400 r.p.m. The specification includes four-speed semi-automatic Pneumo-Cyclic gearboxes with two-pedal control and 24-point air-operated 'automatic chassis lubrication.
