Caption/Description

Horse drawn milk wagons will be replaced with shiny new vans. One of those who will miss the clip-clop sounds of horses is 65-year-old Tony Derago, whose last trip with his faithful horse 'Ike' is recorded in these pictures. They capture the highlights of the last hours of the 15-year partnership between the milkman and his horse.
