Jump to: navigation, search

A Cape cart was a two-wheeled four-seater carriage, drawn by two horses, and formerly used in South Africa. It was equipped with a bowed canvas or leather hood. It was used to carry passengers and mail; in the days before the railways arrived, it was one of the fastest means of transport available in the region. The name comes from the Cape of Good Hope.
