Look ma, no wire |
Description: |
A pair of GG 1s that are slated to go to a yet to be established museum have been acquired from Amtrak, and are now sitting at the connection from the D&H to the old Cooperstown branch, at this time operated by the NYSW. I have a connection to 4932, as it was the engine I rode behind on the Broadway from NY to Harrisburg in August 1978. |

On a personal note, Amtrak 4932 was the engine that pulled the Broadway from NY to Harrisburg when I rode it in August 1978 |
