Rock
Island
is the
Lengthened
Shadow of
Many Men
iSisSlpfll
I^ i
OCK ISLAND, though directly serving 14
mid-continent states, is as much
a local business as your corner drug
store .or your favorite food market.
N EVERY side you see evidence of the
<maent.ifll part this railroad plays in
the life of your community and its
importance to your well being, j
OMMITTED to the task of providing
efficient transportation, it brings you
food, clothing, wearing apparel, build-
ing materials—everything to make
life more livable.
EEPING busy serving others has compen-
sated us in many, many ways. Not the
least of these are the friends we have
made—there are thousands of them.
T IS frequently said that a business is the
lengthened shadow of one man. This
is hardly true of the Rock Island. It is
the lengthened shadow of many men.
OME were engineers, some surveyors,
others were car builders, track layers,
or what have you. Most of them were
conscientious, service-minded persons.
IVE AND LET LIVE was their motto. They be-
lieved, just as their successors do, that
free enterprise is an American heritage
-something to keep and tp cherish.
ND they believed, too, that really good
service .depends not only on an exper-
ienced, willing personnel, but also on
modem equipment and up-to-date
rolling stock.
EVER, may we add, has the Rock Island
been in the position it is today for
providing a freight hauling service
that satisfies the most finicky.
..T
'L__.
IRECT your shipments, therefore, over
Rock Island rails whenever you can
. and know what it means to have
a shipping service a bit better than
“you’d expect!
