These pictures were taken before AMTRAK was formed and painted the GG1s silver. Here you can see the GG1's history in the older faded Pennsylvania and the newer PennCentral railroad paint schemes. Once the GG1s were used for a several years by AMTRAK, all but a couple were scrapped. As you can see, all these pictures were taken in the RF&P Alexandria Rail yard near the sand towers.
