So Queen Victoria had this thing called a bathing machine so she could go swimming like a queen. It was a wagon made for modesty so you could change out of your Victorian best into a bathing suit and the rabble wouldn't see you since you were inside the cabin.

Now I'm imagining that it also contains Hussite militiamen.
