Never knew what the RCMP Musical Ride was until I watched a Canadian Pacific freight train roll by at a crossing in Toronto one day many years ago, and noticed that the locomotive had a big advertisement on its side commemorating the anniversary of the "Musical Ride". That prompted further investigation, and long story short, got to see a performance in person in Ottawa in 2007. Most impressive and a stunning display of equine discipline to be sure. Anyone who ends up with one of these horses will be most fortunate !
