Thank you Lancaster; I thought that zebra could not be tamed and mounted, but this is obviously not the case! I love the photo of "coffee in style" on the train's last coach's platform.

Louis old boy, in the Empire we drink tea.



Now that is style.

I remember reading about taming and riding zebras. Yes it was done, but didn't work particularly well. Also I don't think they took the weight well at all. And were very skittish and flighty. More of a gimmick I think and not serious.

Lancaster, I love your collecting of such historical images and displaying here them for us to enjoy. Well done, mate.
