This starts at Town Square and stops at Central Plaza in front of Sleeping Beauty's Castle. This is one of Disneyland's original 17 attractions. There are eighteen draft horses representing 3 major breeds: Percheron, Belgian, and Clydesdale used for this attraction. Before making it to Main Street, the horses are first trained on the Backlot by pulling weighted sleds (fully loaded streetcars can easily be pushed by 2 average men). After 6 weeks of training, they no longer need to be told when to turn, start, or stop along the way. The horses work 4 hours a day, 4 days a week. They are driven to/from their stables, have individual water fountains, a private beauty shop, custom-tailored suits and sport rubber-soled shoes. Restrictions: Accessible to collapsible strollers only (Disney rental strollers are not collapsible and cannot be taken on the vehicle). Must transfer from Wheelchair. Keywords: Horse-Drawn Streetcars
