Old photograph 1900 stagecoach omnibus and horses Western Railway Company

A pretty and very old photograph depicting a stagecoach and an omnibus and their horses, the omnibus bears the marking "compagnie des chemins de fer de l'ouest". It was in a set of about fifteen old photos representing various scenes with the common point of the presence of one or more horses (if you have any information, i'm taking!). The reference "compagnie des chemins de fer de l'ouest" suggests that it dates from between the end of 1800 and the beginning of 1900, this company having been bought by the state in 1908. It is stuck on a flexible cardboard whose back has multiple annotations not always understandable (by me at least) in pencil, including the words "stagecoach", "omnibus 40 seats", "rome depot" and a signature it seems to me. This photo is in a correct condition, no big spot, but obviously does not hide its hundred years exceeded, and therefore has small spots and colorations. The cardboard frame measures 27 cm by 21 cm and the photo 17 cm by 12 cm. It will be sent well protected against folds but also against moisture. Other photos are or will soon be present in my shop, do not hesitate to contact me if you want to order several so that I adjust the shipping costs.
