All aboard the pony express!

While one man’s attempt to bring his horse aboard an Austrian train ultimately failed, the silly stunt made for some awesome photos.

Earlier this week, a man identified as Benni and his horse, Frieda, reportedly tried to board two trains in the city of Styer with no luck, The Daily Mail reported.
