Rock Island Requiem: The Collapse of a Mighty Fine Line
Gregory L. Schneider
Celebrated in history and song, the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad Company-the Rock Island Line-was a powerful Midwestern railroad that once traversed thirteen states with its fast freights and Rocket passenger trains. Gregory Schneider chronicles the Rock Island's painful decline and along the way reveals some of the key problems within the American railroad industry during the post-World War II era.
