Very rare Hallmark BRASS SD-60. Was a well known company specializing in brass model trains. They imported and distributed a variety of hand-crafted diesel and steam locomotives, as well as passenger cars. Their models were known for their high quality and detail, often adding a vintage touch to brass train collections. Model condition is impeccable. This model has been tested. Lights function, and unit moved in forward and reverse.

HO Brass Key Models 1996 Run PRR GG-1 Silver Single Stripe #4880 – Very rare 1 of the 10 made. The GG-1 was a class of electric locomotives built for the Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR), in the northeastern United States. Between 1934 and 1943 General Electric and the PRR’s Altoona Works built 139 GG1s. The GG1 is a straight AC machine, the supply being reduced in voltage only, not rectified, for use by the twelve AC traction motors, two per driving axle, thus necessitate the lower than standard frequency. Steam for train heating and powering train air conditioning is supplied from an oil fired boiler within the loco, a small chimney for which is located on the roof. The GG-1 entered service with the PRR in 1935 and later ran on successor railroads Penn Central, Conrail and Amtrak. In 1968 the PRR with its 119 surviving GG1s merged with the New York Central Railroad to form Penn Central. The last GG1 was retired by New Jersey Transit in 1983. Most have been scrapped, but sixteen are in museums. Key Bras imported many high-quality, detailed brass models from Japan and Korea. In the mid 70’s until 2008.
