A stagecoach is so called because it travels in segments or "stages" of 10 to 15 miles. At a stage stop, usually a coaching inn, horses would be changed and travelers would have a meal or a drink, or stay overnight.
Often associated with the wild west and the shuttling of passengers throughout that rugged country, we offer up a stagecoach. Hire a Whip and you are off to gather some gold or visit the in-laws. This handmade coach can be pulled by 1 or 2 ponies, and does not come with a guarantee that you will not have an encounter with Black Bart, although he never fired a shot, he just waved his gun and got what he wanted.
Exterior
Fashioned from oak veneer plywood and accented with maple, our stage takes on the Wells Fargo feel with a front seat up top for the Whip and Conductor or as the well heeled called them, the "hangers on". Iron bars make up a luggage rack, various pulls to mount yourself atop the stage, and a red canvas covering for the rear luggage stowage keeping it dry. Large wood spoked wheels and a wood frame, wood lever braking and the front two hitches for the rear of the horses.
Interior
Inside the simpler cabin uses maple and oak veneer plywood as its liner. A ribbed rubber floor is under the dual saddle brown covered benches in said cabin. Amenities were sparse and most stages relied on a stop to change out horses, feed the passengers and change crews if necessary. Trips were typically a long haul and brought with danger from bad roads, the elements and the occasional thief.
An interesting build, keeping it real like the old Wells Fargo coaches, all wood structure with some iron thrown in for the heavy work on the pulls, steps and luggage guards. A custom build with many unknown facts.
