OK, since nobody else has posted a picture:

Just received mine today and the battery for the camera is on the charger. In general, two beautiful cars. FWIW, I do make a point of supporting club (Beer) cars on this forum. These will be in good company with my Natty Boh and Rheingold cars.

I do wish that Bosch Beer was still brewed. I've become a real fan of Natty Boh beer...

Loco-dan, in his posting, included a link with photos....as "trainroomgary" has done.

So many beers no longer brewed, Colorado ones, one with a nifty "Dutch" logo, the

Wooden Shoe Brewing Co., in Ohio, the list goes on and on...

Thank-you • Northern Michigan Railroad Club

for making an excellent club cars for 2014.

I'm really glad you guys like it!!!  It's fun doing the detective work on these.  Don Wrobel and I only had the one blurry photo, but I figured out the center of the star by looking at old Bosch beer bottle labels from that period.  It's a hop with B B C intertwined in the center of it (Bosch Brewing Company).  John at Buffalo Creek did a great job on setting up the graphics and working with Weaver.

By the way, Bosch was originally pronounced "busch", but morphed to Bosch.  Their radio advertising used to say "Busch or Bosch, it's the same great beer!"  Also, Charlie posted a video of his cars on the other thread.

Here's one of my two, behind a Lionel Copper Range switcher.

For "Bosch" to have been pronounced something close to Busch, was Bosch

originally spelled with two dots (umlaut) over the "o", and they dropped the two

dots?  Sound would have been something like, "bersh" or "bursh", to English ears.

Yes, that's what I think.  My wife, who was born & raised in Germany, thinks it was Americanized a little bit by dropping the umlauts when he came over to the States, and over the years it came to be pronounced differently.  Probably "bursh" at first, then "busch", then "bosch"  A friend of mine, who is from Ahmeek (just north of Houghton), remembers the old radio ads.  Anyway, hope you like your car!
