Rock Island history, a bit confused

I typed in a search of the Rock Island, and got a present Rick Island site with fotos of new deisels, etc. a sitting president and board of directors. Didn’t the Rock go out entirely, after liquidation???

If you found what I think you did you need to click the disclaimer which says the site is fiction. It is a what if scenario. Interesting isn’t it? In reality I believe appliance manufacturer Maytag owns the rights to the Rock Island names and logos. I don’t know what arrangement if any they have with Iowa and Interstate whose engines frequently appear with similar logos.

Iowa Interstate now owns the rights to the Rock Island logo.

that link posted is infected with trojan downloaders

I came across the site a couple wks ago while doing some snooping on the RI and in my opinion is just very dumb to begin with.
