how fascinating!  I knew nothing of the history of Eagle buses, yet they are historically linked to Setra, and manufactured in Europe until 1975!   With the name "Eagle" I always considered them the most American of buses! There are three pages in this link, but the colors make the page links very hard to see:  http://www.silvereaglebus.com/eaglehistory1.htm (http://www.silvereaglebus.com/eaglehistory1.htm)

Hmmm,
It seems maybe, just maybe some of you will believe what I have been telling you all along! ;)
"I knew nothing of the history of Eagle buses, yet they are historically linked to Setra, and manufactured in Europe until 1975! "

I have been proudly telling ya'll forever that todays SETRA is the younger brother of the ORIGINAL EAGLE! (both designed and built by Kässbohrer) ;D
