    Our Amtrak Equipment In honor of Amtrak’s 50th Anniversary, we have decorated all of the Museum’s former Amtrak equipment with ribbons and numbered signs. When you see one of those signs, follow this guide to learn about their history and Amtrak service. When you see a QR code on one of the pieces, scan it to see photos of it in action. 1. Exhibit Case. Second Floor Gallery. This exhibit case, near the Broad Street Station exhibit, contains several early Amtrak uniforms, photos, dishware and other memorabilia. 2. GG1 No. 4935. Track 3 East. The GG1s are forever linked to the image of the Pennsylvania Railroad at the height of its power, but they continued to serve for many years after the demise of the railroad that built them. Amtrak received many of them, including this locomotive, No. 4935. Some were repainted in a unique Amtrak silver, blue and red scheme, but most remained in Penn Central black. In 1977, Amtrak chose to repaint No. 4935 into the PRR’s Brunswick green and yellow scheme as an early “heritage unit.” It was revealed to the public at a ceremony in Washington, DC’s Union Station on May 14 of that year with the GG1’s original streamlining and paint scheme designer Raymond Loewy in attendance. In that same year, No. 4935 also pulled the last ever Railway Post Office train in the United States, between New York and Washington, DC. 3. E44 No. 4465. Track 3 East.
