Horse powered treadmill

For thousands of years, mankind has harnessed the use of horse power for most of his transportation needs, but then *bang* the car came along, and the poor horses got left in the paddock. The main reason is that even a 12 horse open sleigh couldn’t pull a cart as fast as a normal car, but with the invention of a gearbox, and the treadmill, we can put horses on a treadmill, and transfer all of that horse energy, quite literally into torque, and find ourselves at a higher speed because we have transferred power to speed (we could even use slow moving but powerful clydesdale’s) Using this method, we don’t need to rely on oil at all… (just grassy car parks). The extra green spaces would revive our cities.

Someone has actually gone ahead and done it, and put it into a 3d animation of a bus. Enjoy
