Not quite because the GP7 offered especially for the PRR were "torpedo tube" geeps, never offered in 3 rail or 2 rail that I am aware of.
The GP9's well previous 3 rail models had too many mistakes or not detailed enough or too delicate/underperforming or had the "china drive" syndrome that many 2 railers are not happy about
