Galloping Goose

[bernardD]

Hello

Hereafter some pictures of a "Work In Progress" : a Galloping Goose for the RGS.


This is the number 7 goose, with the initial Pierce Arrow body. Probably the front bogey is not correct, but I don't find precise drawing for that (anyway it will be a very simple model).
Also the cabin is missing for the moment.

Yes, yes 1000 times this

This will fit in beautifully. Its always been a thing - a great new route and a paucity of the rollingstock etc that you would expect to have seen in real life, or great new locomotives/rollingstock and nowhere realistic to run them.

Good luck with this project, looking great so far...

Hello

The work continues (even if the post has disapeared a few days?).
Cabin, snow plow, opening rear doors have been added, also sounds (horn taken from a video of a Goose, sorry engine sound not specific ...)
Also I have added some road vehicles : a Pierce Arrow (to reuse the 3D !!!) and a Ford truck, because I love the RGS road ... except the road vehicles (trafic too fast, only 3 vehicles, windows of the "coupé" too narrow, For T (?) very rough ...).

I was wondering if it could be published like that now, or if it would be better to wait a litte (some holidays for 4 weeks in a few days ..), to add a new version (Goose #5 with bus body) ?

Waiting for that, a few pictures :







Best regards

Happy the goose has returned, must have been migrating. Can't wait to make some screenshots.

Hello

I have put a first version of the Galloping Goose in my web site: http://deschamp-bernard.chez-alice.fr/content2.htm (click on the link "Le Matériel à voie métrique pour TS2018 /Metric gauge rolling stock for TS2018" and you will find it at the end of this page).

After my holidays I will try to make a second version, with the bus body instead of the Pierce Arrow body. So if you have any suggestion/remark you can post them here and I will try to take them into account (as far as possible!).

Regards

Bernard
