How and when it was acquired, sold or scrapped. Also repairs made, or modifications made. When and how the Motors/Galloping Geese came to be. More information on Victor Miller, RGS Receiver, and how he managed to turn things around a bit, and actually help SAVE the RGS money in repairs etc... An interesting, but somewhat complex look, at the equipment used by the RGS. A definite Must Have, for anyone wanting to try to accurately model the RGS!! And with this, we finish our very interesting look back at the 162 mile narrow gauge railroad known as the Rio Grande Southern.
