Photo Caption: "Penn Central GG-1's, Sunnyside, L.I., N.Y., 1969." Pictured here are four identifiable Penn Central locomotives, all of which are GG-1 (2-C-C-2) electrics built in Juniata and rated at 4,620 horsepower each. On the left is #4902, built in May of 1940; it's all decked-out for the celebration of "American Railroads 1869-1969." Next over is #4892, built in March of 1940.
