I see that RMT has a few GG1s available. I have wanted one and really need another engine as my MTH steamer seems to be stalled in repair.
Are these typically of good quality and reliable? I would hate to buy it then it break when RMT is gone. I assume that since it is conventional it would easy to repair anyways.
I like to run my trains slow to keep the noise down as they are usually out during the holidays on a floor layout. Do they go slow well?
Thanks- Bill

Same as the old K-Line GG-1s. Run very well. Easy to fix.
Bill,
I have a K-line GG-1 in brunswick green (5 stripe) that I'm getting ready to sell if you are interested.
It's the twin - can motor design and electronic e-unit (no tmcc)
Runs great. Looks new. No digs or damage. Original box and documentation. Never had any issues.
Drop me an email if interested.

The K-Line's were very smooth runners, RMTs are pretty much the same units. Parts could be a problem though. Walther is retiring but he is still is not offering blowout prices. In fact his last e-mail he had raised the price of Beeps by ten dollars.
