History
The 2..2 /ennsylvania GG1 *lectric diesel was the first of several GG1 diesels produced $y Lionel in the postwar era. (t the time of its introduction in 1%#7" it was the ultimate Lionel en!ine. 0esides $ein! the first postwar Lionel diesel" its heavy die-cast $ody and impressive loo s made the GG1 an immediate success. The 2..2 is a smooth runnin! diesel. 1owever" with the lac of 2a!netraction and a heavy die-cast shell" this sin!le motor diesel has limited pullin! power. Su$sequent Lionel models of the GG1 were all equipped with dual 2a!netraction motors. 3evertheless" the 2..2 is still a desira$le locomotive.

( common pro$lem with all GG1 diesels is the letterin! and side strips. 4ue to years of handlin!" it is quite common to find a GG1 with worn letterin! and5or strips on each side near the center. 6nits with intact letters and strips will usually command a premium. (nother area of interest is the horn. The horn on the 2..2 is unli e other postwar diesel horn. 7hen operatin! properly" the horn sounds li e a metal $o8 with somethin! 'rattlin! around inside'. Lionel attempted to duplicate the real-life sound -- and to a certain de!ree it was successfully -- however it simply sounded terri$le from a toy train point of view. This version of the horn was discontinued on future GG1s. The len!th of a GG1 electric diesel is appro8imately 1#9 lon! +coupler to coupler,.
