I saw them everyday along the mainline in The suburbs of Philly, oh what a sight to see.

All the hazardous components have been removed from the remaining GG1's. It's my understanding that many of the survivors also have frame issues and it wouldn't be economically feasible to try to resurrect one with contemporary electronics if they could be shoe-horned in somehow.
