Summary
editDescriptionNewark - Pennsylvania Railroad GG1 Locomotive No. 4814, July 1966.jpg |
English: A Pennsylvania Railroad GG1 electric locomotive. I photographed it from a moving train near Newark, New Jersey. The New Jersey Turnpike is in the background.
The GG1 was built for high-speed service. Its premier route was between New York and Washington. It had a top speed of 100 mph (160 kph). There were two units in the locomotive's body, with a 2-6-6-2 (2 Co + Co 2) wheel arrangement. The 12 electric motors developed 4,620 hp (3,450 kw). A total of 140 were built in 1934-1943. It was a massive locomotive, 80 ft (24 m) long, weighing 475,000 pounds (225 tonnes). Some units were converted to freight service, beginning in the 1950s. The last GG1 was retired in 1983. About 15 have survived and are in railroad museums. The location is approximate, |
