Genuine Running Brook Road Cart. Pony size, made of oak, exc. condition.
Brass appointments and spares box.  Always stored indoors with weight off the
shafts. This is an awesome vehicle. The balance is perfect and the shafts float
beautifully in the tugs at any gait. I use it with my 12.2 hand icelandic pony. I think
it would work for a 10-13 hand equine. These cost $1,800.00 new. This one is 3
years old and less than half price. Asking $800, but would consider trading for a
sensation treeless saddle or a wintec pro endurance with cair. Located in
