Goose drawings

[Anonymous]

Does anyone have a drawing of any or all of the Galloping Geese that shows dimensions. I'm looking to build some in N Scale and can't seem to find this info on the net. Any help is appreciated.

Scale drawings of the Rio Grande Southern Motor #5 are in the Mar/Apr 1991 Narrow Gauge & Short Line Gazette. That is the original Goose. The Mar/Apr 1992 issue has drawings for a 1930 Mack Rail Motor Bus,and the Mar/Apr 1993 issue (is a pattern developing?)has drawings of a 1929 Silverton Northern Rail Bus. I don't know how easy it is to get back issues. The Galloping Goose Historical Society used to be at PO Box 297, Dolores,Colorado 81323. If they are still in business they may have drawings for sale. Good luck.

Thanks for your help. I'll see if I can come up with those issues.

isn't Con Cor making these now? Or is that just in HO scale?

As of the 6 August 2003 availability list I have from the Narrow Gauge and Short LIne Gazette, all of the issues cited, with the exception of March '93, were available for $ 4.95 each. Their Web site is:

An alternative would be to obtain photocopies of the articles from the NMRA's Kalmbach Memorial Library:

Their repro price is reasonable, even for non-members.
