In the Summer 2009 issue of Classic Trains, we celebrate the incomparable GG1 electric. Developed by the Pennsylvania Railroad, the G's kept working for 15 years after the PRR's demise. Here, from the Herron Rail Video [www.herronrail.com] program "Pennsy's Racetrack," are scenes of PC, Amtrak, and Conrail GG1's in action during the late 1960s and 1970s.
