The trolley is a platform simply equipped with wheels to serve to carry any loads. A trolley is often provided with boards to maintain or protect the load.

It is then called a dumper. On the trolley there is a place for the leader.

It can be seen that on this dumper is that it is tilting, that is to say that one could tilt the plate, open the rear gate and thus empty the load.

He could indiscriminately be pulled by chains of strokes or oxen.

This model seems to date from the end of the 19th century, without further explanations unfortunately. You can find it on the site of the Seigneurie de Poutrincourt (historical monument).

Le chariot est une plateforme simplement munie de roues pour servir à transporter des charges quelconques. Un chariot est souvent muni de ridelles servant à maintenir ou protéger la charge.

Il porte alors le nom de tombereau. Sur le chariot, il y a une place pour le meneur.

On peut constater que sur ce tombereau, c'est qu'il est basculant, c'est à dire que l'on pouvait faire basculer le plateau, ouvrir le portillon arrière et donc vider le chargement.

Il pouvait indifféremment être tiré par des chaveaux de traits ou des boeufs.

Ce modèle semble dater de la fin du 19 ème siècle, sans autres explications malheureusement. Vous pouvez le trouver exposé sur le site de la Seigneurie de Poutrincourt (monument historique).

1 truck/1 tombereau
