My question concerns the correct operation of pantographs on GG1s. I have heard from two
or three sources that the PRR required enginemen to operate the GG1 with the TRAILING pantograph
raised...not the front pantograph. Yet, I have seen home movies (DVD's) showing both on operating
trains. Was there such an order, and, if so, what was the preferred pantograph? Thanks in advance.
