Originally established in 1890 as the "Greene Line" this all-American company put the historic, 1926-built Delta Queen into service on the Mississippi in 1947. The boat, a U.S. National Historic Landmark, has been in active service since then, but has been joined by two sister ships on the Mississippi and recently by the Columbia Queen on the West Coast. Unfortunately, American Classic Voyages - Delta Queen Steamboat's parent company - declared bankruptcy in October, 2001. However, in 2002, Delaware North Companies purchased Delta Queen's riverboats with the exception of the Columbia Queen so that America's oldest cruise line is once again in business today.
