- Note
- "A wagon is derived from the 16th century Dutch wagen or German "Wagen", and many similar equivalent words exist in other northern European languages. Alternatively and archaically spelt waggon in British and Commonwealth English, it is a heavy four-wheeled vehicle pulled by draught animals or on occasion by humans (see below), used for transporting goods, commodities, agricultural materials, supplies and sometimes people.
Wagons are immediately distinguished from carts (which have two wheels) and from lighter four-wheeled vehicles primarily for carrying people, such as carriages. Wagons are usually pulled by animals such as horses, mules or oxen. They may be pulled by one animal or by several, often in pairs or teams. However, there are examples of human-propelled wagons, such as mining corfs." - (en.wikipedia.org 06.10.2019)
