[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by daveklepper</i> <br /><br />I stand corrected on the pilot truck GG1 motors, yet I do remember reading something about this in an authoritative publication many years ago. Perhaps it was an experimental installation? Can anyone enlighten me? [/quote] <br /> <br />Perhaps what you are thinking of is the P5B that the Pennsy made. They took one of the P5A locomotives and added motors to the leading and trailing trucks. Thus turning a 4-C-4 into a B-C-B. It was more powerful than the P5A but not enough to bother repeating.
