ELECTRIC LOCOMOTIVES - Let's See Them!

I have a couple more - but here is a start

MTH Pennsylvania P5a Modified

Western Hobbycraft Trolley

K-Line Pacific Electric Interurban

MTH Milwaukee Road EP2

MTH Milwaukee Road Bi-Polar

Lionel postwar New Haven EP5:

Arnold

Here's our K-Line  EP-5, a scale rendition of the iconic electric that both Lionel and Gilbert American Flyer produced in the 1950s  The Lionel model was short and used incorrect 4 wheel F3 trucks while the Flyer unit had proper 6 wheel trucks and was better proportioned. K-Line's model is a pretty good full-scale O gauge model with TMCC and Railsounds from the Factory.

Lionel Postwar Brunswick Green Pennsy GG1:

I’ll see Arnold’s PW GG-1, and raise you an MPC Tuscan 5-stripe!!!

Here's a few...

Thanks!

I guess I need to add a little Spark to this thread after all it is about Juice Boxes!

MTH Premier P5a (needs shell) & P5a Modified

MTH Premier GGI Tuscan 5 Strip

MTH Premier GGI Brunswick Green 5 Strip

MTH Premier E44

MTH Rail King GGI

Lionel Postwar Rectifier 2329

Lionel Postwar GGI 2332

And of course more Cabin Cars or Caboose's !!

some of mine

Here's mine:

A Williams rectifier, longer than the traditional Lionel version but not sure if it's scale.  K-line GN EP-5 scale like C. Sam's,  K-Line KCC GG-1 in Brunswick Green five stripe livery and a MPC era EP-5.  The E-60 below is a Williams with "B" trucks instead of "C"s like the 1/1  version.  This is destined for a fantasy GN Big Sky Blue paint scheme.

Here's my latest creation. The shell had numerous holes drilled in it so I did some body work and made up the rest from my spare parts.

A couple more…

First up, a pair of JLC GG1’s…

Next, we have a VisionLine GG1…

And finally, an electric I rode from Livorno to Florence on a vacation to Italy some years ago…

Needed some local representation in this thread.

Three-rail

Williams E33, reasonably close to scale except for the height of the hoods, taller to accommodate the vertical can motors:

One of several Williams MTH and a Lionel scale GG1s that I have:

Two-rail:

Atlas AEM-7:

K-Line EP-5:

converted to two-rail; according to some, a better version than the brass one that was imported:

E44, unknown manufacturer, possibly Locomotive Workshop:

And an unknown scratch-built 1-D-1 chassis, this one is outside third rail:

One of several doorstop (heavy cast bronze) EP-3 and GG1 motors that own:

And finally, a trolley box motor built by Bill Robbins (of Nevada Short Line fame) that I now own:

Joe...nice collection...BTW,I have a Williams E-60 still in the box if you need....all the best..joe

BiPolars all around, they look awesome doubleheaded:

There are lots of prewar variations as well. 

NYC T-type loco c. 1922

As well as smaller locomotives. 

To even smaller locomotives

St. Paul locomotives

Lithographed engines

NWL

more....

Only have a few Electrics.  Got them to stand still for portraits.

First off in 1948 or 1949 Dad brought home a GG1 from Amer's train shop.  But it kept jumping the tracks!  Howard either replaces it or worked on it.  Bur NO Joy so did not get any until much late.

All three of these have a significance.  The green 4935 in the 70's was painted back to its original scheme by F.O.G.G after Amtrak gave them the OK.  So it actually pulled Amtrak tries for about a year.  The red 4876 (then green) crashed at the DC Union station in early 50's.  It was Cut apart and out.  Rebuilt painted red.  And than there is 4829 a one and only scheme!

More modern PRR Electrics plus the NYC that ran in Cleveland, Ohio.

Had to have a neat Amtrak!

Lastly always like the NH EP-5 from the mid-50's catalogs but they did not go with my Pennsy.  Now I know that these NH EP-5's pulled mix passenger consist of NH and PRR cars.

Paul are we playing GG1 Poker?

LOL, Arnold

@PRRronbh

1)  That 4829 is a stunning looking paint scheme.
2) Slight clarification, while the P-motors were built for Cleveland Union Terminal, by the time they were under full New York Central ownership, they had been rebuilt for use in Grand Central.

Something a little different from the previous posts...

256 Electric remake from LCT. Pair this up with the matching 700 series passenger cars and it's an Orange Blast!  Btw, this is an O gauge loco...often mistaken for Standard gauge.

Thanks for the info on the P-Motors.  Did not know that.

And from the other side of the Atlantic...

A 1960's vintage Marklin HO E03 electric operating under Marklin's catenary system.

I see both your PRR GG1s and raise you both a scale, Amtrak GG1!

Joe - never seen that guy before. Factory or custom paint? Thanks

MTH RK GN EP5 PS3

Here are a couple of mine :

American Flyer 3110 1928-1929, 1931

American Flyer Wide Gauge 4644 1928-1933 sitting next to the #3110 in O'gauge

A French Hornby OE-PO locomotive of 1949

The Lionel 252  1926-27

The Lionel 256 1924-1930

Well there you go for me.  Remember the pictures make everything seem the same size but they are not.   The Lionel 256 is by far the largest pre-war O- gauge locomotive Lionel produced.  With twin motors, it dwarf's most of the rest and is almost as large as the American Flyer Wide Gauge 4644.

Best wishes for a great weekend everyone

Sorry, Bryce, but that just doesn’t fly… a GG1 in any other livery is STILL a Pennsy GG1 - five stripes or better to open

Well, nice.  Here is one of mine:

A few from my collection…

Opening day this past January 30, 2021. This is my favorite GG1.

Strong engine. 2004 JLC. I’m a PC fan. So so many railroads combined into one ambitious failure. Crazy history and lots of local connections. Legacy rail and non rail survivors have certainly prospered. I like Conrail too and especially today.

Helped pick up an estate with Vince Seebach of old Vince’s Trains in the Orange hall. This was part of my take for helping out.

Had to add mine after looking at all these fine Eletric Locomotives, Keep America Strong!
