It is really a testament to the people of the Rock Island, and to a certain extent the Milwakee Road that despite such handicaps as avaricious owners who bled the company dry and incompetant management that they lasted as long as they did. Although they were not succesful, you have to respect their pluck and their drive. I think that is the reason those fallen flags hold such an allure 25 years or more after their demise.
