RailKing Galloping Goose™ Operating Manual
and precisely control where the Galloping Goose™ does finally stop. This
option is the default setting for the SAS feature.
Once the bell button is released, the Galloping Goose™ will come to an
automatic stop even though power to the track has not been interrupted by
the operator. Once stopped, the SAS feature will play the sound of the
doors opening followed by the sounds of the Colarado wilderness with the
sound of a white water river in the distance. During this event, the operator
can expect to hear a variety of different sounds, including thunder, cows,
sheep, birds and four horn blasts indicating the Galloping Goose™ is
getting ready to leave. After a set period of time, the operator can expect to
hear the “Please close the door!”, followed by the car door closing. Then
two horn blasts for forward or three for reverse followed by the bell ringing.
Immediately following the door closing, the motor will be engaged and the
Galloping Goose™ will automatically take off. The Bell will shut of by
itself after 5 seconds. The SAS feature will automatically start the
Galloping Goose™ back up in the same direction it was travelling when the
SAS feature was activated. So if the Galloping Goose™ was travelling
forward before SAS was activated, it will continue travelling forward once
SAS has completed.
Option 2 Manual Mode
The SAS feature is armed in the same manner as Option 1, except that the
Galloping Goose will not automatically stop when the bell button is
released. To activate the rest of the SAS feature, the operator must stop the
car and place it in the neutral position by interrupting the transformer
throttle. The Galloping Goose will not automatically start up again after the
initial SAS sounds have played. Instead, the sounds will continue, giving
the operator the ability to leave the car at the stop for longer periods of time.
When the operator is ready to leave the stop, the transformer throttle must
be interrupted again. This will be followed by the sound of the doors
closing, after which the SAS will automatically reengage the motor and the
Galloping Goose will proceed away from the stop. Like Option 1, the
Galloping Goose will continue in the same direction that it was traveling
before SAS was activated.
