I know I am again behind a couple of days, but crazy schedule…

On Tuesday I stopped and took some photos at the Virginia Museum Of Transportation in Roanoke, VA. Wonderful!!! They have a GG1 sitting on a siding in their railroad collection. This locomotive, built for primarily passenger service on the Pennsylvania Railroad was a revolutionary design, both mechanically and aesthetically. The basic design was by Donald Roscoe Dohner, with the finishing aesthetics done by Raymond Loewy. This is an infrared photo to give better contrast on a gray day.
