If he gets more info and anyone else is interested I will add it here. Last time I saw this motor she was in excellent condition.GG-1 #4935 is to be moved sometime this week from the Pennsylvania State Railroad Museum, via the Strasburg RR and Amtrak to Union Station in Washington, D.C. Here it will be put on display as an adjutant exhibit by the Smithsonian Institute. I am totally in the dark as to when this move will be made, but apparently the Museum staff is preparing the #4935 for her trip, getting the air brakes operational and the roller bearings properly lubricated for movement. Pending inspection by the FRA and Amtrak shop forces, the transfer move will be scheduled. I look for Strasburg to use their newly acquired SW-9 to make this move as their GE 44-tonner has been side-tracked. Plus, it will probably be done at night.
