Q-Ball ◊ 2014-05-05 01:27	So put Belgium as place of origin?
antp ◊ 2014-05-05 17:32	A few are listed that way, but not all: /search.php?resultsStyle=asList&sortBy=0&make=Eagle&model=Model+01 Should all be BE-origin?
chicomarx ◊ 2014-05-06 00:41	Yes, model origin BE and made for USA. "Trailways found another European partner - La Brugeoise in Belgium, an old company mainly building railway equipment. With the help of La Brugeoise, Continental established its own factory in Belgium, giving it the name Bus & Car N.V. In 1961, Bus & Car N.V. built 185 Silver Eagles, Model 01's of a somewhat different design. The first Bus & Car Eagles were similar to the earlier models except for the introduction of a wraparound mesh grill which remained an Eagle feature until 1969. In addition to the coaches for the US market, Bus & Car developed other models. The Eagle 04 was a 2-axle coach for the European market and was manufactured from 1966-1970." http://www.eaglesinternational.net/history.html
