Wanderlodge Trivia Question

[Pete Masterson]

Or, the rail to tie the goat's rope to.

I note that the earliest Blue Bird WLs seem to have a "real" baggage rack with double rails that looks to be nearly a foot tall. So even the more abbreviated 'goat rails' on the coaches built in the 70s, 80s, and 90s are a streamlined version.

I thought I read on here once that it referred to an image of a bus in 

a third-world country with poultry and small livestock on the roof, 

like we have all seen in movies.  They are the rails that keep the 

goats that are lying on the roof from falling off.

Where did the phrase "goat rails" originate, to describe the roof
