The '''Galloping Geargrinder''' is a minor character in ''[[Cars 2]]''. He is a slow-moving train who works on the [[Ornament Valley Railroad]].


==Bio==
According to ''[[Meet the Cars]]'', he is a 1935 [[Rio Grande]] GG; closely resembling a classic early-1900s automobile, and is even referred to as the "Old Model T" by [[John Lasseter]].{{cite}} He is painted black and has a front cowcatcher covering his chassis. He has six small wheels, a lantern on his side, a pair of air horns and a small gate protecting cargo on his back.
The Galloping Geargrinder has been riding the rails of [[Carburetor County]] since the 1930s. The Geargrinder was light on the tracks and extra efficient at running the mail into little towns like [[Radiator Springs]]. But by the 1950s, the delivery work dried up as the semitrucks began using the new straight-line highway that bypassed the old, curving train route. Other Geargrinders ended up at amusement parks and tourist traps, but old GG prefers to continue chugging along his original line - and to keep [[TOw Mater|Mater]] from trespassing in the tunnels!
===Cars 2===
He only appears in the beginning of [[Cars 2]] when Mater and [[Lightning McQueen]] are riding on the railroad tracks at [[Radiator Springs]]. He is seen passing by imitating a train in a tunnel, which scares them away.
