The GG1 has been plastered on everything from magazine ads and Hollywood movies to coach seat headrests. It is said to have been in more advertisements and movie clips over the years than any other locomotive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GG1 was designed in 1934 because the Pennsyvania Railroad was unsatisfied with the performance of the P5a. GE delivered the GG1 prototype to the PRR in August 1934, and PRR ordered 57 more locomotives in November of the same year. They eventually built an additional 81 units between 1937 and 1943. The GG1 represents a breakthrough in electric locomotive technology. It was patterned mechanically after the New Haven Railroad EP3. The GG1 could track better at high speeds compared to the P5a, and the wheelbase design allowed it to negotiate sharp curves and some railroad switches that the R1, another PRR Electric option, wasn't able to negotiate due to its rigid wheelbase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBroadway Limited Imports brings the memory of this world famous locomotive to life in die cast construction with Paragon3 electronics including Rolling Thunder™. In this production run, we offer six distinct PRR paint schemes, one Penn Central, and one Amtrak. Each road number and paint scheme are prototypically accurate. In our 2019 production, we built models with the flat pilot and fixed coupler. In this 2021 production run, our models have the later drop coupler and pilot shape that accommodates the coupler in the down position. Our models also have three distinct intake vent options, and each model has the correct intake vents for the selected paint scheme.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParagon3 Sound \u0026amp; Operation System featuring ROLLING THUNDERTM \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthentic Sounds and Prototypical Operation in both DC and DCC environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegral DCC Decoder with Back EMF for Industry Best Slow Speed Operation in DC and DCC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecision Drive Mechanism engineered for continuous heavy load towing and smooth slow speed operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePremium Caliber Painting with Authentic Paint Schemes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoad-specific Detail Variations Accurate for Each Paint Scheme\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrototypical Light Operation with Golden White LED Headlight and Rear Light\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in GoPack Capacitor Pack for Better Performance on Dirty or Uneven Track\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDie Cast Boiler Body with Die Cast chassis for Maximum Tractive Effort\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating Pantographs for Prototypical Appearance (not motorized)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) Operating Kadee-compatible Couplers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating Headlight and Rear Light\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeparately Applied Handrails, Grab Irons, Ladders, Horn, and Brass Bell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFactory-Installed Engineer Figure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWill Operate on Code 70, 83, and 100 Rail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended Minimum Radius: 18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccurate Prototypical Sounds for a GG1 Electric Locomotive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eParagon3 Sound \u0026amp; Control System Features:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING THUNDER™\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnmatched frequency response as low as 20 HZ when paired with Rolling Thunder™ subwoofer kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8 simultaneously playable audio channels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproved motor control in DC \u0026amp; DCC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotor short circuit protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks with NMRA standard DCC controllers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAutomatic dual mode: works with DC power packs or DCC systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo selectable bells\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree playable horns with variable endings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne long non-looped horn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne alternate horn for locomotives with a second horn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4x expanded autopilot storage vs Paragon2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpanded startup and shutdown sequences\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e64 MB sound memory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 watt audio output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e24 individual sounds with separate volume control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable bell ringing interval for faster or slower bell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumerous user-mappable functions with available keys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultiple Realistic Passenger and Crew Sounds play on command\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSimple Programming with Integral DCC Decoder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully Compatible with JMRI Decoder Pro\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAutomatic Forward \/ Reverse Signal - When activated, stopping triggers and stop whistle toot.
