GG-1 engine

[Anonymous]

Hi,
I noticed that someone mentioned that there are some G- Gauge models of the PRR GG-1 coming out soon. I called Aristo-Craft and the fellow said they are working one one - at least a year off. Someone earlier this year told me that they would have it this fall ! ? Does anyone know if there are actually any available?
Thanks
Craig

Hi Craig,
Welcome to the forum! Glad to have you aboard. Currently the only GG1 I know of is made by USA Trains. Check their website at www.usatrains.com. St. Aubins has them advertised for $1479 US including Phoenix sound. Their website is www.lgbpola.com. Hope this helps you out. Enjoy the forum. Later eh...Brian.

The lgbpola web site refuses my attampt to connect. Do you know if there is something wrong with it? I got to USA Trains OK, but they do not list any dealers, pricing or other information.
Any other dealers near Rochester NY carry this unit?
Thanks
Craig

Hi Craig,
Not sure why it won't work. Web site looks OK. Also try Trainworld in Brooklyn. www.trainworld.com. Later eh...Brian.

Craig,

Ridge Road Station in Holley, NY. (Right off of rt. 105). If you haven't been there yet, you owe it to yourself to get out there. Bring your wallet, because there's a ton of really cool s*** there. Their prices are very good. With the exception of all my friends from when I lived out there, that's about the only thing I actually miss about Rochester. www.rrstation.com . So far as I know, the USA GG-1 isn't ready yet, but they had a sample at the GRR convention in Denver. Damn nice looking unit. LGB is also coming out with one, as is Aristo. Not sure on the price or quality/level of detail of either of those.

Later,

K
