Fascinating pictorial history of the eight Galloping Geese on the Rio Grande Southern, packed with black and white photos showing the hardworking vehicles in every kind of weather and hauling both merchandise and passengers. The author describes the fraught financial state of the RGS that led to the development of the Geese and their use over the decades until the RGS finally succumbed to its final bankruptcy. With roster (providing technical data for each Goose), a delightful 2-page Carl Fallberg comic, directions for building a model Goose, and maps. 62 pages. Note: material in this book was originally printed in the Colorado Rail Annual No. 9 (1971).
