| Old Rivets. Here is a photo that was published originally in the November 1940 issue of "Trains" magazine, page 14. Photo Credit: General Electric Company. Virtual Caption: "GG-1 a magic symbol to Pennsy fans; here is first." Shown here is PRR engine #4800, a GG-1 (2-C-C-2) built by General Electric as number "4899" during August of 1934, rated at 4,620 horsepower, renumbered "4800" in November of 1934, and presently on display at the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania in Strasburg. This is the very first photo of a Pennsylvania Railroad locomotive ever published in a "Trains" magazine (Volume 1, Number 1). |
