Used during the late nineteenth century, this flat-bottomed carriage gave its passengers a bumpy ride. Rather than using metal cross-springs, an axle of flexible wood was used. These wagons, either manufactured or homemade, were generally driven in rural areas. U.S. #2124 is part of the popular Transportation Series.
