GG-1 Electric

The
Broadway Limited now available! |
Raymond
Loewy designed, the Pride of the Pennsylvania
|
The
Pennsylvania Railroad's GG1 class of electric
locomotives were built between 1934 and 1943
at the PRR shops in Altoona, Pennsylvania,
with a total of 139 units constructed. They
remained in service with the PRR’s
successors until the early 1980’s.
The GG1 became one of the most recognized
and famous classes of locomotives worldwide.
While
the famous industrial designer Raymond
Loewy did not design the shape of the GG1
electric locomotives, he did improve their
looks by recommending the use of a smooth,
welded construction instead of a riveted
assembly, along with a pinstriped paint
scheme to highlight their smoothly rounded
forms; the "streamlined" style,
evoking speedy travel, was popular at the
time.
