No. 7. A low-bed utility wagon with low sides which makes it easier to load and unload cargo. Since there is no seat visible, this wagon was pulled by a team of horses. However, a seat could be easily added. This has a short turn radius noted by the front wheels ability to turn under the bed. The small wheels seem to indicate that this type of wagon was not used for long hauling. Long-haul wagons would usually have larger wheels which requires less pulling power. Note the all-metal wheels, even the spokes. Also note the stay chain which is visible from the front axle to the doubletree.
