ONLY one loco, Frank? You're slipping! But what a beauty. I imagine that is an all-metal body? And to think that piece was produced when
the G was still riding on PRR colors- sweeeeeeeeet!!! Does it run?
Jeff, you know you have an old one when you peek in along to open edges underneath the model and see lead nose weights on each end. Also, the square wafered rectifier, that provided directional lighting in these old GG-1's.

I see you got two different variations of the Tyco Purina reefer.
