Old time European farm cart......from Schleich

Poking around the Schleich website looking for livestock, I thought about buying their normal horse cart. However, detail photos showed it to be a bit clunky.

So back to square one, then I looked at their Medieval/Knight line. And found item number 42008, sold as an Ox Cart:

I remembered seeing similar carts in this 1930s French Film (go about 1:10 in for the first):

It is an impressive and large model. Should look good on the railway with some straw this summer.

For the $15 I paid, VERY impressed.

FYI, Ridge Road Station have free shipping on Schelich orders over $40.

...and the sign is standing up to the weather quite nicely as well...
