Excerpt from From the Stage Coach to the Railroad Train and the Street Car: An Outline Review Written With Special Reference to Public Conveyances in and Around Boston in the Nineteenth Century
In those days at some seasons of the year the roads between the most important places were in such passable condition that the few who could afford it could ride in their own or in hired vehicles. On the main lines of travel post chaises, that is, two wheeled chaises with relays of horses every ten or twenty miles, could be obtained. The stagecoaches were the only regular public means of conveyance over land and of these stagecoaches there were very few.
