Throwback to one of our past builds—this truck is part of our Mainlander series. It fits three horses and sleeps up to six people, making it a great setup for travel.

One feature to highlight on this build is that we offer custom-made ramp gates. These help guide horses as they load, giving them a clear path and a bit more confidence stepping into the coach. They also prevent horses from jumping off the side of the ramp, adding an extra layer of safety.
Each set is custom-made to fit the truck if the customer chooses to include them. Small details like this can make a big difference in handling and safety.

We also love the black detailing throughout—such a timeless choice by the customer.

At Mainland Coachwork, we build custom coaches to match your exact needs, using quality materials and real attention to detail. Our team takes pride in delivering top-quality horse coaches built to last.

This horse coach was in our yard last week after a horse damaged the divider gates and chest bin top.
We got the gates repaired and fitted a shiny new top for the chest bin, getting it back on the road in top shape.

No matter the make or model, our skilled team at Mainland Coachwork can handle any repair or maintenance job—big or small. If your horse truck or float needs work, we’ve got you covered.
