Well I don't have any GG1 pictures handy but I do have a memory. My Dad took me to the Army/Navy game in Philadelphia and we traveled via the PRR.  I remember especially, after the game, we walked over to a yard area and there were all the trains waiting to take people home.  GG1 after GG1 hooked to passenger cars with signs reading  "New York", "Newark" , "Trenton"...etc.  You picked out your train and got aboard.  I later learned that the Army/Navy game was the largest passenger movement single day in the PRR calendar.

Well electrics...how about that famous "New Haven" type box cab.  Here are a few:  The Lionel 256 from 1924-1930.
