I've tried unsuccessfully to find the Lionel GG-1 Tuscan Red 5-stripe (6-18371) for sale on the internet....can't believe there is not ONE...

My only option is the engine from "3-Rail" -- anyone have any feedback on their TMCC compatability and reliability?
Thanks

Here's a video of the new baby: PRR GG-1 in Tuscan red -- a quickie run through of all its tricks on the kitchen table:

Note the creaking sounds the pantagraphs make when operating and the blast of steam at the end.
