CR GG1 4800 at Harrisburg |
| Description: |
Returning from our first trip to Altoona where hundreds of railfans gathered to see Reading 4-8-4 #2101 round Horseshoe Curve, my friend and I came across a gem resting at the Harrisburg engine terminal. CR GG-1 4800 was resting with sister GG-1s and other former PC electrics in her wild Bicentennial paint scheme! Kodachrome 64 film, a guess at exposure time, and station lights for lighting made for an interesting image of "Old Rivets." On April 12, 1976, the Harrisburg paint shop had added the colorful scheme. Sadly, 4800 was the only GG-1 Conrail deemed worthwhile to repaint into full Conrail colors. All of the other almost ageless CR GG-1s remained in grimy black until their retirement in 1979. |

CR GG1 4800 at Morrisville |
| Description: |
CR GG-1 4800 waits at the tail end of a trio of GG-1s at Morrisville yard in February, 1979. The prototype for the great GG-1 fleet went through many paint schemes in its storied career. A simple CR blue with the large "can opener" replaced the wild red, white and blue Bicentennial scheme that lasted from 1976 through the summer of 1977. |
