Rok's Model Train Junkyard - ROKMAN1445 - 12-16-2016
Yeah, I have model trains. Lots of them. By Christmas (or the religious holiday that you celebrate), I hope to restore a GG1 that I've found. There's a lot more in my Model Train Junkyard.

Ok, now that you have hopefully seen the image, here are some details on the locomotive:
-I have had the locomotive for nearly 8 years
-One of the knuckles is missing
-A wheel is missing a flange
-I haven't used it in years
-A pantograph frame is loose
-A pantograph won't stay down
-It's made by the company, 'PEMCO'
-One of the bogie assembly's is snapped from the holding bar
-It has one powered middle bogie
I saw it today and thought about getting a new one. I'd be $400 dollars in debt if I let it stay in it's place.

Anyways I just found out about PEMCO. It was a company that was meant to make model trains at a slightly higher quality level than TYCo. there was only one catalogue, featuring this GG1. It may be one of the few of this brand in existence. Now fixing this train up is definitely gonna be worth it.
