Questions about horse-drawn wagons as "train vehicles": correct trotting speed
There are some horse-drawn vehicles that run on train tracks for available for Trainz, preferably on invisible track set at the correct height. I have just discovered this lately and this will make a neat scenery for my cowboy town of Caliente, CA on the Mojave Sub with various old-west buildings along on a gravel street including a saloon, a livery, an old-fashioned bank, the sheriff in town with his hound dog, Skippy, as he lazily rocks in his chair on the porch of the jail house with his big shiny Hummer parked in front, and the jail house. I could not find any whorehouse assets.
I plan to have stagecoaches, farm wagons and passenger carriages that shuttle passengers to and from the train station in town.
All of the driver-driven horse vehicles I have seen have "trotting speed only" in the description but what does "trotting speed" mean in terms of miles per hour? I have to set a speed for my "horse track" (no, not the one you go to for "playing the ponies") course for the horses to travel. The animals' gait, rate of walk, should match vehicle speed.
