That's not to say that I wouldn't have a GG1, having ridden in one out of D. C.'s Union Station to Baltimore. You needed a shoehorn to get around in that thing Raleigh is absolutely correct about the space inside a G, unless you go to the left hand side and sit in the fireman's seat. Union "featherbedding" required a fireman on the G's and virtually every other diesel and electric locomotive, altho there was nought for them to do. A "good" fireman would occasionally sweep the cab(s). "Santa Claus" took G's into Penn Station in New York on more than one occasion. Usually on the Harrisburg to New York run. I happen to know "Santa" and the "real" engineer, both.
