| Prototype Information — |
| The
Pennsylvania Railroad's GG1 class of electric locomotives
were built between 1934 and 1943 at the PRR shops in Altoona,
Pennsylvania, with a total of 139 units constructed. They
remained in service with the PRR’s successors until
the early 1980’s. The GG1 became one of the most recognized
and famous classes of locomotive worldwide.
While the famous industrial designer Raymond
Loewy did not design the shape of the GG1 electric locomotives,
he did improve their looks by recommending the use of a smooth,
welded construction instead of a riveted assembly, along with
a pinstriped paint scheme to highlight their smoothly rounded
forms; the "streamlined" style, evoking speedy travel,
was popular at the time.
About the Brunswick Green Five-Stripe
GG1
The Brunswick Green "Modified Loewy"
scheme was used in the 1940's, and was the most commonly used
paint scheme on the PRR's GG1's. It had 5 gold pinspripes
and gold serif "Clarendon" lettering, and was a
refinement of the "as delivered" paint scheme as
Loewy first envisioned it. |

 Click

Joining the ranks of the GS-4 Bicentennial “American Freedom Train” and the U30C Bicentennial “Spirit of ‘76” comes the GG1 in Conrail’s Bicentennial colors! This locomotive was painted specially for the United States Bicentennial celebrations in 1976 and carries a unique red, white, and blue color scheme adorned with 50 stars on each side and an image of the liberty bell. Scheduled for release next April along with a re-release of the popular PRR Tuscan red five stripe paint scheme GG1 (for use with the still-available PRR Broadway Limited classic name train), this locomotive is sure to make a splash on layouts, whether it’s running on its own or with its bicentennial brothers.
Note: While the prototype GG1 #4800 was a uniquely “riveted” molded GG1, this N scale release will use the same body shell as the standard Pennsylvania GG1 |

Following their run on the Pennsylvania Railroad pulling the Broadway Limited, in the 1970’s many GG1’s continued on in their life running on the Penn Central and then Amtrak, pulling everything from freight to early Amtrak Superliners. Many of these locomotives continued to operate well into the 1980’s – their nearly 50 year lifespan a tribute to how powerful and effective this locomotive truly was.

*Powerful mechanism designed to pull a full 15 car train consist up a 4% grade. }

Stock Checks:
Inventory is a fluid commodity. It changes by the
hour (sometimes by the minute). To retain our pricing structure
we maintain stock levels designed to turnover 6 times each
year. We cannot guarantee stock status till we have an order
in hand. All product is subject to prior sale. If we confirm
that we have it, and, while we are waiting for the order
it sells, you would be upset that we did not hold it.
We used to hold items but learned a VERY EXPENSIVE lesson.
When we held items for customers’ orders, the order
never materialized 80%+ of the time. We lost out on
the orders placed while the item was on hold. Also
we wasted staff time that could have been used to pull actual
orders.
Since we are well known for finding older stock the fact
that it may not be on our shelves at this minute does not
mean we can’t get it. So, as we spell out on our terms
pages, we don’t do it anymore. You may, however, call in and we will tell you if the items
are available and if possible attempt to locate what we
don’t have while you are on the phone. |
