Indeed, hence the " reasonably model it" wording. Terrain and then actual space on a layout where it might not only fit but also be well seen.

Plus the problem of keeping the cable down on the guide wheels under tension.

So many of the photos you present from times-gone-by have a peacefulness to them. I wonder why that is.

Maybe looking back in time we perceive that peacefulness vs. the our dissatisfaction with today's pace & lack of peace.

Memorial or Decoration Day, as my grandmother called it, parade.
With a police escort. Everyone is respectful and dressed in their best.
Times have changed.

I don't think I have seen a wagon with a low slung floor like that before.
Easier to load those bags?

Maybe it's some kind of a low slung harvesting wagon that they can pick up what ever is in the field and bag it up from the wagon :?: Don't think I have ever seen one like that before.

I've only seen such wagons or axle arrangements used for hauling logs. Maybe it was just in service hauling stuff back after a load was dropped off?
