Transportation
Horses let you travel faster and more easily when you got to get somewhere quick, and if you cannot go where you need
to by horse, whether because of excess gear or distance then you will need some other form of transport. Most towns
offer carriage services, or have a train stop or station. Bigger towns, and cities might even offer ferry and steamboat
service.
