During my class last week at the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania, Museum Director Patrick Morrison offered to open up some of the locomotives. I asked if we could visit former Pennsylvania Railroad GG1 electric 4935.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I made these fireman’s side views with my Lumix LX7.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was pretty neat to explore the steam-era streamlined electric locomotive. While at the museum I bought my dad a GG1 4935 T-shirt which I delivered to him in Massachusetts a couple of days later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On January 1, 1980, Pop, my brother Sean and I photographed this classic machine together at New Haven, Connecticut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
