Rumor has it that when the Pennsylvania Railroad was developing new power for The General and The Trail Blazer trains, they were considering both electric and steam. They wanted an additional GG1 for motive power, so Loewy designed an alternative 5-stripe deco scheme. Ultimately the PRR went with the 6-4-4-6 S1 steam loco and the new GG1 striping was applied to The Big Engine. This deco scheme never before offered in O gauge. This Lionel VISION Legacy GG1 includes all the features shown in the 2024 Volume 2 catalog.

Both USS Tennessee (BB-43) and USS California (BB-44) were anchored in Battleship Row in Pearl Harbor when the Japanese attacked on December 7, 1941; California was torpedoed and sunk while Tennessee was only minimally damaged. California was refloated and both ships were then heavily involved in the US victories in the Pacific Theater. Both battleships wore variants of the Navy's camouflage paint schemes. Official US Navy drawings were used to design these Lionel SD70's. California is Legacy powered and Tennessee is a non-powered dummy. Special military sound set to be included in powered unit. FREE SHIPPING if you pay in full or reserve with a deposit and shipping will be added to the balance due ($25 for one unit, $35 for 2 units).
