Conestoga Wagons Secrets:
This attraction was stopped immediately when one of the horses tripped, tipping the wagon over, fortunately with only minor guest injuries.
From Pasadena Independent, December 18, 1955:
You will ride the Conestoga Wagon in Frontierland—one of the most picturesque and vital vehicles in history.
It was the Conestoga, not the Covered Wagon, that developed the West. The great wagons were first built in the Conestoga Valley of Pennsylvania, with water tight bottoms that permitted safe crossing of rivers.
