What does a horse-drawn train mean?

Carriage is the way for trains to enter China. Because folk and conservative bureaucrats think that steam locomotives "destroy feng shui", they have always opposed road construction. However, Li Hongzhang adopted the way of protecting the road first and then using the car. Before the steam locomotive was adopted, he built a direct railway to Zhongnanhai along Beihai Park West Road, and let Baima pull Cixi's car to visit Beijing. It is very popular with Cixi, and this is also the purpose of building roads, building the Tang-Xu Railway and ensuring Beiyang coal transportation. The county magistrate took the horse to his post in a carriage, apparently imitating Cixi. At the same time, it also alludes to the process of China's modernization. It seems ridiculous from the screen (after keeping a certain distance), but it is a real event along the way.
