The carriage in Fable II is a way to fast travel from Oakfield, Westcliff, and Bowerstone Market to each other. In order to use the carriage, you must pay a fee for each ride. The upside to you using a carriage ride is that it is faster than your standard fast-travel or traveling on foot. The counterpart to the carriage is the ship which can be used to get to Westcliff or Bloodstone from each other.

- They first became available in Ultima I, then known as a "cart". In Ultima VII, only carriages were offered by the stables, due to that installment's engine limitations.

- They were common before the invention of the motor vehicle in the late 19th century.
- A carriage was a wheeled vehicle for people, usually horse-drawn. The carriage was especially designed for private passenger use and for comfort or elegance, though some were also used to transport goods or even prisoners.
- Picking an undiscovered city prompts the driver to give information about it. Unlike fast traveling, which limits travel only to discovered locations, carriages can be used to reach cities that have not been visited previously, shortening walking time considerably.
- Carriages are also believed to be used by Naga and Goblins on giant sea turtles.[citation needed]
- In 1893, a newspaper reporter described the outlaw driver of a carriage to Samuel Clemens as an albino, who Clemens recognized instantly as Data.

(VOY: "The 37's") In 2372, horse-drawn carriages were a common sight on the streets of New Orleans, at least in the neighborhood of Sisko's Creole Kitchen. (DS9: "Homefront", "Paradise Lost")
