mail coaches
Letter-delivery horse wagons
Mail coaches were horse-drawn vehicles that carried postal mail and passengers on scheduled routes, primarily in 18th and 19th century Britain and America.
They ran on fixed timetables between towns, with changes of horses at coaching inns along the way.
The arrival of railways made them obsolete: The last mail coach ran in 1874.
