Electric from coast to coast! Alas, we first need to expand beyond the Northeast Corridor before oil goes back through the roof.

There were actually 7 GF6C units built, not 6. The 6-count is a strangely prevalent bit of misinformation on the history of these locos, which I've seen perpetuated in more than a few places.
