Keep hoping they drag one of these up to Milford- do a cosmetic restoration and let people see them inside and out Ive been inside these and although vandalized there is still a lot of cool stuff to see. Sadly they will never be able to run again but could be repaired enough for a good display. Not sure if the rails north to Milford are in good enough shape to being up there but it would be great to see it done. Maybe they could start a kick starter program

I’d have to dig through my RR pictures, but I’m pretty sure I photographed those about 30-some years ago, but it was just the 2 GG-1s and they were both beside a main road in a different area. These have degraded a lot since I saw them in person.
@@rogera.ellison9631 there’s also a caboose and a passenger car nearby. This place is in the middle of nowhere but I’m starting to see how it makes sense. Right place right time. Lucky to have what we have. I like the “abandoned” look of them but can’t wait to see a restored type.
@@iPlaneFunSo do I. And I am old enough to remember seeing them in Pennsylvania Station pulling out with passenger trains back in the 1960. I am a New Yorker who grew up in NYC during the Mad Men.

@@iPlaneFun It really was! The World's Fair of 1964,1965 in Flushing Meadows Park in Queens, NYC. The New York Mets, Knicks, and Rangers winning their championships in 1969, and finally on the radio in August 1969 in the news there was an warning about a traffic jam near the state capitol of Albany called Woodstock. We later saw it on the afternoon news on TV. 😃
@ thanks for sharing!!
Wasn't a reason why Conrail and AMTRAK stopped using them was a change in the type of power supply used in the former PRR territory and it was too costly or impossible to retrofit the GG-1 engines to accommodate the change?
It was bit more complex. Certainly there was the power supply change coming but also after nearly 50 years of use the GG1's were nearly worn out. Many had developed frame cracks. Also, the EPA determined that the PCB's in the GG1's transformer cooling oil were of a high carcinogenic level. Power change, frame cracks, PCB's. "Three strikes, you're out." It was that simple.
@@wayneantoniazzi2706 weren’t they too heavy as well?
@@iPlaneFun No, not really. The PRR rebuilt and re-engineered the mainlines where GG1's operated with those locomotives in mind, some sections having rail that weighed 155 pounds to the yard, the heaviest ever used by any railroad. Wherever the wires went the G's could go with no problem. Those old mainlines like the Northeast Corridor and Amtrak's lines out to Harrisburg still have some of the heaviest rail out there,
@ got it. Thanks again!
@@iPlaneFun You're welcome!
There is (or was) a GG-1 cab at the Franklin Institute I Philadelphia. The view forward out the engineer's window was quite limited. He/she couldn't see straight across the cab, either. It was vital that there be another crew member on the other side of the cab.
A GG1 engineer was asked if the limited sight line forward bothered him. "Not really" he said, "We can't stop on a dime anyway!" When you come down to it the limited sight wasn't all that different from a steam locomotive which most Pennsy engineers were used to.
@@erie910 fascinating. Great info
The same cab was used also for the streamlined steam locomotives of the Pennsylvania Railroad from 1936 til 1946.
@ do you mean the same overall design?
@@iPlaneFun Basically on the engineer can. There were several different streamlined steam locomotives of the Pennsylvania Railroad. The biggest and most streamlined of them all was the class S1 of 1939 that was shown in the New York World's Fair of 1939, 1940. In 1941 it was used on the streamlined passenger train The Broadway Limited until 1949 when it was retired and scrapped. Type on Google to see photos of it.
Restore please
I know exactly where this is. Not far from me and I have been to them.
@@Flight--tz5nf so cool. I’m about 45 minutes from them.
nice
@@slserenader thank you for watching!
What i find rather odd about the GG1 is the physical design. Almost a throwback to the steam loco with the cab at the back and looking along the boiler. Americsn had already devloped an adopted diesel elctric traction where the cac was virtually at the front, so it begs the question why did they look put a cab at either end.
@@Steven_Rowe odd indeed. Radical yet not for the period
Cabs were placed in the center of the GG1's due to some severe grade crossing accidents where the crews of the Pennsy's earlier electric locomotives, the P5 Class, were killed in the collisions, the P5 cabs were located in the front of the locomotives. Also, being out in front without 50+ feet of steel between them and a collision made a lot of veteran engineers VERY nervous. That would carry over into the early diesel era as well, E and F unit diesels made veteran engineers nervous as well. Nowadays it's no big deal with train crews, front end cabs don't bother them.
@ 📌. Thanks!!
@2:49 Looks to be a Delaware & Hudson 50ft boxcar from about the late sixties and a shame the spec numbers are all gone. Apparently CP bought them out in 1991.
@@Don_ECHOguy great info
Well, this location is just a hop, skip and a jump from what used to be the D&H mainline.
Delaware meaning the river, right?
Oneonta used to have a huge table it's a shame it's not still around
Hopefully everything will be saved.
@@PatrioticCoservativeAmerican I don’t think the train is going anywhere! Such a cool find
Is that a mail car or workmen's car? Why did we abandon the catenary railway systems and electric locomotives?
@@nertocs that’s a good question! I’m sure someone will have an answer! Stay tuned
@@iPlaneFun the railroads didn't abandon electric railway systems, to be truthful it has been expanded..........from Washington DC to Boston. Conrail abandoned all of its electric engines in favor of DIESEL, but all new systems are electric such as light rail.
“ mail “
@ thanks for the answer
It's a bit of a complicated subject to go into but briefly when diesel locomotive were developed to a good level of efficiency railroads with electrified lines looked at the numbers and saw in some cases it would be cheaper to run diesel-electric locomotives than running straight electric ones. It was expensive to maintain overhead catenary and to generate their own electric power to run the system. Where electric operations made economic sense they stayed, where they didn't they were removed. It was as simple as that.
I bet these have a lot of miles and stories they could tell! Would have liked to see what was inside of the old Wood boxcar, looked like it had a bunch of stuff in there xD.
@3:36 - *Conrail Quality*
Is that the conrail blue showing thru?
when did they stop building wooden box cars?
@@scottmorse1798 good question. I’m gonna guess late 1940’s? Dunno. Hopefully we will get an answer
@@iPlaneFun More like early to mid 30's I think. They continued to be maintained and in service for another twenty years or so.
The D&H had a car building shop in Oneonta, just a few miles south of Cooperstown Junction, years ago.
