The Goose

The Goose is a new build replica narrow gauge railcar based on a road vehicle. It was inspired by the Galloping Goose railcars which were operated by the Rio Grand Southern Railroad in the mid-20th century. The Statfold Barn Railway based The Goose on a Morris commercial vehicle chassis and a US Motor Corporation diesel engine.
