Great photos Jason, I still can't get over how a bunch of cobbled together second hand junk put together by a bankrupt R/R to keep running in order to save the mail contract during the depression, exist today. The R/R ceased to exist over 60 years ago, but all of the Geese are still here, and RUNNING! Amazing.
