Turin or Torino is of course where Fiat is based. The second part of the name plate looks like 4214 which could be a reference to the engine size in cc, although that would be a small engine for a bus.
The second part in the name plate is 421 AL. "4" identified, during the '50, '60 and '70s, city buses. AL stays for "autobus lungo": it is a 12-metre, while the 11-metre version was named "421 A". This one is a Viberti-bodied 421 AL, part of the 801 vehicles batch bought by Turin Transit Authority between 1975 abd 1983. 404 had original Fiat body and 397 were Viberti. Engine was a inline-six 13litre (13174 cu. cm)
