Lionel 623, 6250,and 2032 - they all share same/similar motors and just glide along with great power & traction, I also would nominate my Williams 3748 GP-7 Conrail, what a puller that one is - quiet and no sign of strain even when it is!
Somebody mentioned these earlier. Sixty years old and run they like they are brand new.

Agreed.

Maybe it's a GP 9?
This is a K-Line GP38-2. It was produced pretty close to the end of K-line production. A good model for its time.
My model of PRR G5s 4-6-0 #5740 was made by MTH with PS1 about 15 years ago. I have run it a lot and it is very well broken-in and very smooth, even at low speeds. The chugging sounds and whistle are outstanding, especially when running fast. I replaced the battery with a BCR early on. It has been a trouble-free locomotive. The PRR G5s was the most powerful ten-wheeler locomotive ever built.
