2. Misinformation as the plant never closed. Article is nearly a year old

Marshalltown ended up buying it after all.

BUSHNELL, Ill. (WGEM) - After months of uncertainty, and a potential closure looming, over 120 employees at Vaughan & Bushnell Manufacturing Co. can rest easy.

Representatives from a company called Marshalltown, based in Iowa, were at the plant Wednesday morning to tell the entire staff that they officially acquired the business on Tuesday.

Marshalltown signed a letter of intent to acquire Vaughan & Bushnell last month but backed out of the deal. An official closure was never announced by Vaughan & Bushnell or the city of Bushnell.

Carter said the plant will retain the Vaughan & Bushnell name and all employees are already on Marshalltown’s payroll. Before this acquisition, Marshalltown employed roughly 600 people and has been around for 134 years.

5. Just bought one, after seeing this post!

I think it’ll definitely improve my experience when breaking up pallets…certainly better than what I was using before.
