7½” ga. Galloping Goose plus extras

 SOLD

  

7.5" Gauge Galloping Goose For Sale

The goose was built from scratch about 10 years ago as an entry level into 7.5” gauge live steam. It has run on all the tracks in Iowa, St Croix in Wisconsin, and Fordland Mo. Everyone who has ridden/ driven it comments on how solid it rides and how well it performs. It handles two adults with ease.

The drive is 24 volt battery from Roll Models as is the power controller. It will hold two #27 marine deep cycle starting batteries. Nothing cobbled up about it. It’s bullet and idiot proof and will last forever. I have run an entire weekend without recharging so I have no idea of range.

It breaks in two and will ride in an S-10 pickup. Without batteries two men can load it. With batteries, four! Batteries are not included. There is a third battery, lawn mower type will do fine, for head lights and model T style horn included.

Included with the goose is a spare axel / wheel set, 24v automatic charger, Goose call, the driver (monkey), 250 feet of railroad, box of screws for railway, all the paper work for everything about the goose. If I find something else, it goes too.

I’ve lowered the asking price to $2500- you haul. My van is too tired. I’ve got too many hobbies and retirement doesn’t fund them all very well. Someone might as well be enjoying the goose, it‘s a total hoot. I also have a very nice 1969 Lincoln Mark III, $8000. Am I allowed to mention HO stuff ?  (sure George).
