This thread is mostly cars, a few trains, and not a lot else... But, while on holiday, I got some pictures of some other things! Here's a pony at Beamish:
It was in a pony stable in Beamish, this one must be growing up because I certainly agree that it is quite large for a pony Many decades ago, ponies used to work the mine carts in the mines in Durham where Beamish is, and because it's called the "living museum", it actually has all of the stuff there. That means the ponies are stabled here, but no, they haven't gone back into the mines for decades, the mines were shut down a long time ago, it's just as a museum type thing if you know what I mean
The full name, "Beamish, the Living Museum of the North", it's a really interesting place! It's like it's stuck in the past but all the people that visit are people going back in time, just wearing, well, new clothes?
Ah... that's one of them old-fashioned cars, then? Pony... yeah, like the forerunner of the Mustang, right? I haven't seen that model before.
Well, horses are heavily associated with cars actually - as you say, the Mustang for example is a model name... Not only that, but we use the term "horsepower" to determine a car's power, that's based on horses too. Guess we're still going pro-car here at Fendy Photography
