Great shot, Jack. Not typically in wonderful condition, but being a GG-1, it is still a thing of BEAUTY. She has seen many a hard day & conditions that could make other locos run & hide. With the proper loving care, she still has the ability to shine. Thanks for posting the timelessness of this GG-1.

What a stark contrast between her once normal stomping grounds in the big cities with catenary lines to this wooded storage area.

Nice photo Mr. Jakeman - such a disheartening sight to see when a piece of railroad history is neglected and left to rot. Although you have the photo of this GG1 at the Cooperstown & Charlotte Valley Railroad - there is a sister GG1 behind it, and I'm sure you are well aware of that since you took this photo.
