stagecoach
A stagecoach (also: stage coach, stage, road coach, '''''') is a four-wheeled public transport coach used to carry paying passengers and light packages on journeys long enough to need a change of horses. It is strongly sprung and generally drawn by four horses although some versions are drawn by six horses.
