It's under the waiting platforms and is semi-exposed to the elements. The shell is somewhat banged up like it's been sledgehammered in spots. For all that, I'd never seen a GG1 in the flesh (so to speak) and I was happy to get the chance.

Sorta like my shell after years of marrital bliss.....and I'm nowhere near as old as a GG1
I've yet to have the pleasure of viewing a real GG1. Maybe I'll check it out when I'm back in the Harrisburg area next fall

I will not be able to attend the lunch with the Chief either. I am scheduled to alphabetize my ear wax collection. Sorry, I'm booked!

I will be unable to have lunch with the Chief. I am polishing the clothes hangers in my closet that day. Sorry! Maybe next time.

Of course the subject of discussion will be TRAINS, which makes this a legal post on the forum.
At the present time I have 6 on the list. If you will be attending please send me an email so we know about how many will be there.
Thanks,
