Hi,
Many of us have been around long enough to have ridden in a GG1, got hauled in a consist pulled by a GG-1, got really close to a GG-1, etc. etc.
So, how about sharing your stories here. Let the younger fellas that can only read and dream about a GG-1 learn from us.
I used to travel on business from Penn Station, NYC to Wash. DC about once a month. Some of the stories are classic, and possibly not to be believed, but did happen. How about your's ???
I usually caught a heavyweight consist of about 16 cars, hauled by a Brunswick Green GG-1 at Penn Station, and caught a Tuscan Red GG-1 hauling a streamliner, stainless steel cars, coming back. The stainless steel cars had air conditioning and the train seemed to move faster and make better time.
