Mike Woodruff General This is almost certainly one of the "Congressional Limited" train sets, newly equipped with Budd-built stainless steel cars in 1952. Several GG1s including the 4913 were painted tuscan red (matching the letterboard stripe on the cars) for service on these trains. 1/22/2011 10:19:31 PM
