Horse tram (1830)

The first horse tram drove in Manhatten, 1832. But, in simutrans we have to wait until 1865. That's why I made this add-on. It mainly contains an old tram track, looking totally rusted, and because of that looking it's more on top of the way, and that's is a fact, we only got the grooved rail in 1852. This tram track expires in 1865. It cost's as much as the default track , but has a lower maintenance cost of 10c. The max speed is 20km/h.

Secondly it contains a horse wagon, which costs 0.01c, more then the 0.00 of the default one, and it has less p****engers. But, in these early days, it's profitable. It's meant to be sure all tram tracks and lines are updated to the new one in 1865. The max speed is 20km/h.

To make this possible, the horse and depot had to be changed to an earlier intro year.

Actually the horse tram was the first tram I found listed as standard tramways. There have been horse rail intercity lines before (like the first intercity railways in Budweis-Linz from 1827). (German only: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pferdeeisenbahn_Budweis%E2%80%93Linz%E2%80%93Gmunden)

So this will be considered.
