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.

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.
