How did Shakespeare run his stage?
Your question assumes that Shakespeare "ran his stage", whatever that means. It suggests that he acted as a director or stage manager of his theatre company. However, we have no indication that anyone performed either of those functions in the company, and if they did, it probably wouldn't have been Shakespeare doing it. The lead actor and star Richard Burbage would have been the one "running the stage" if anyone did.
Why do they call the passenger seat shotgun?
Take a break and watch an old cowboy movie. On the stage coaches that ran across the west there was a driver and a man that rode shotgun. Ho sat up top next to the driver and carried a shotgun to protect the stage coach from being robbed. That is where we get the term "ridding shotgun." Up front next to the driver as opposed to the back seat or inside the coach.

How did gold affect transport in Australia?
The goldrushes helped bring improvements in transportation in Australia. The famous "Cobb and Co Coaches" ran successfully for half a century, thanks to the goldrush. Cobb & Co was a passenger and goods transport company which operated from 1853. It had an extensive network of travel routes throughout Victoria and New South Wales (beginning initially on the Victorian goldfields), and even southern Queensland. The company imported specially sprung coaches that could handle Australia's rough roads, and horses were changed at stations along the route. Steam trains were developed from the 1850s onwards, so railways also began to be built and opened as demand for reliable transportation increased. Train lines were built, linking the major centres, and roadways were improved. Horse-drawn trams were initially used in some areas, until steam-driven and electric trams were brought in during the late 1800s.
