Description
Iconic and enduring, the Pennsylvania's GG1 is a legend both on and off the rails. As popular today as it was on its debut 90 years ago, the GG1 balanced style, speed and power in a way few other machines ever have. The locomotives logged millions of miles before retirement and still Raymond Loewey's styling has never grown old.90 years after "old rivets" first graced the rails, it's only fitting that we'd bring back Lionel's GG1; a model as rooted in this company's history as the Pennsylvania's. Available for the first time since 2016 and with some new features and paint schemes, there's no better time to add a GG1 to your roster (or pick up another!) This years class of models covers the entire spectrum of the GG1's career from 4800's initial scheme to Amtrak and Conrail blue. We've even included a few special throwbacks to Lionel's own heritage as well! The VISION GG1 features 4-digit addressing and Bluetooth for the first time. We've also improved the gearboxes and pantograph features over the previous runs as well as some small but new detail changes like two different pilots and the correct number of window bars per the era of the paint scheme! Like the previous VISION GG1, pantographs raise and lower automatically on start up/shutdown and with change of direction. And you still have the fun catenary arcing lighting/sound effects and even de-icing dual-pan operation. The model is also equipped with steam generator smoke, stereo 3 speaker sound, LED lighting including bi-color marker lights and so much more! Whether you're highballing with the Congressional, working hard on a freight, or just reliving your own memories of running your own rail empire with your 2332 on your living room floor - the VISION GG1 is sure to move you.
