autobús postal
Explanation:
Coincido con el compañero en que es un autobús que se caracteriza por transportar tanto personas como correo, siguiendo la usanza de las diligencias, coches de caballos, etc. Mete en google "autobuses postales". Sale bastante.

Un saludo y suerte!

Coche de correos


Explanation:
Según wikipedia Postauto es el sucesor moderno (y lógico) de la Postkutsche (diligencia). Como diligencia suena bastante anticuado usaría coche de correos. Slaby, por cierto, lo denomina autobús de correos.

PONS

Postauto nt
<-s, -s> coche m de correos

Postkutsche f
<-, -n> diligencia f

SLABY

Postauto n autobús m (del servicio) de correos

Hola:
Mira en este enlace. http://www.postauto.ch/de/index_pag.htm
Parece un medio de transporte de Suiza y más bien es un autobús, no un coche. Espero que te sirve.
