A coach and horses.
An attendant (formally called a "footman") is there to assist the carriage driver in handling the horses from the ground. Carriage drivers should never leave the seat until all passengers are safely out of the carriage, so in an emergency (horses acting up, broken harness parts, etc.), the footman is there to head the horses or otherwise assist in correcting what is wrong. Outriders are riders on horseback that were traditionally used as scouts, riding ahead of the carriage or wagon to check on road conditions, etc.

A Victorian stable boy was responsible for the care and maintenance of horses in stables, including feeding, grooming, and exercising them. He would also clean the stables, manage the hay and bedding, and assist with harnessing and tacking up horses for riding or carriage driving. Additionally, he might help with repairs and maintenance of the stable facilities and equipment. This role was crucial in the days when horses were a primary mode of transportation and vital for farming and industry.
