Personally, I think the GG-1 is a masterpiece of industrial design. It was "born" in the same year I was and I just wi***hat I'd aged as well! As for why so little mention there could be a number of reasons; only used by one RR, limited geogrphical area, and the fact that it was electric would require catenary to be accurate. Mine always runs w/ a bunch of baggage cars to hold all the batteries. LOL.
QUOTE: Originally posted by jeffshultz The GG1 was only used by three railroads - Pennsylvania RR, Penn Central (which was the merging of the PRR with the New York Central) and Amtrak, who inherited some of them from PRR/PC. And they were limited to a fairly small geographic area.
