True classics of engineering design and ahead of their time styling. Sad that the same engineering excellence was not applied to the preservation of the remaining GG1's. Instead of safe care of their PCB containing coolant systems and maintenance of a supply of the chemical to keep in line within the EPA regs, all of the cooling systems were drained and/or removed effectively making them forever inoperable.
