Has a GG1 ever been restored to running order?

UNIONS? Volunteers would be doing this, probably. I have a feeling that crews coming off of hot steam locomotives (with cramped cabs) (hand fired, too) in the muggy Washington area had NO COMPLAINTS when assigned to electrics. Really, a GG-1 would be pretty easy to run on excursions--it requires just the juice, so no special stops would have to be made, and they are bi-directional, so no turning would be required. Also, they are just as kind to track as any other electric. <br /> <br />Those are complaints held by some about steam excursions, none of which would be grounded with GG-1's. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br />Daniel Parks
