Just in case any of you missed it, just got word from Atlas (Master) that in December they'll be releasing a new locomotive, the Fairbanks Morse H15-44 and H16-44. One of the roadnames they will be releasing is, you guessed it, Rock Island. In the black with wide maroon stripe down the middle, "Rock Island" in white letters in the red stripe (I can't recall what that paint scheme is called). Looks to be about $140-$150US, dual-mode decoder pre-installed.
I have not done any research to determine how prototypical this is.id='Georgia'>
