a horse pulling a carriage down the road with a man in it's seat

an Old Order Mennonite man driving his horse and buggy on Highway 86 East of Elmira in Woolwich Township, Waterloo County, Ontario. (note the hard rubber tires) {40 years ago just the Bishop and the older folks drove one of these roof buggies, now lots of people use them, even young families.}

two horses pulling a covered wagon with people in it down a dirt road next to an open field

This is a picture of a covered wagon being pulled by two horses, also called a horse and buggie. This was the perferred way to travel on the Oregon Trail. The reson it was perferred is because you could transport alot of clothing, food, people or equipment from one place to another in less time than you could walking. Even though this method was quicker for travel alot of people still died to fevers, snakebites and othe obsticals while on the trail.
