Jayden Moore and Hamish pose with the 1903 ladies trap the Foxton Horse drawn tram committee has acquired.
Animal and human volunteers from Foxton's famous horse-drawn tram were at the Horowhenua AP&I Show last weekend to show off their new acquisitions and to raise funds.
Their three horses enjoyed the adoration of the public and were happy to pose for pictures.
The organising committee of the horse-drawn tramhas new volunteers, a new horse and a new trap. They also have plenty of new plans.
They recently have bought a 1903 women's trap, which had been in one family since 1908.
"We plan to use the trap often for rides and because it is small and therefore more manoeuvrable, we can use it at other venues. The tram needs a lot more space to turn," said volunteer Jayden Moore, who has been working with the horse-drawn tram since he was a lad.
