After the trunks had been dragged out of the woods with the aid of a bob they would be loaded onto a four wheeled pole waggon for transport to the timber yard or sawmill.
The load could be 10 tons or more, so a team of five horses was sometimes used - one in the shafts and two pairs in the trace harness in front.
Note the box in the forecarraige, for stowing the chains and other gear.
