0 wally dugan Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 WHATS the distance between the wheels it look like the front set of a four wheeled trolley like the ones used years ago on railway stations for luggage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Locolines Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 It's about 4 feet, but seem too heavy duty to be the railway ones, although I maybe wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 wally dugan Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 THE reason l asked is we found several four wheeled trolleys when we moved in to the museum they were marked LNER and had been used in the tannery for moving hides on l think trolleys like this were used by many companies including farmers were l grew up to take milk churns to the road side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
