Putting modern traction motors and filling the inards of a GG-1 with modern electronic compnents to make it run would make it into a fake gg1. I'd love to see one restored and operated on main line, but it should be mechanicaly like the originals. The real GG-1,s were almost silent motors. I beleive the older technoligy of those engines will run on lesser voltage than built for and even on diffferent frequencies. Maybe not at 99 mph tho. <br />ps: the GG-1 looked good even in PC black.
