Wagons were formerly pulled by animals such as [[horse|horses]], [[mule|mules]] or [[ox|oxen]]. Today farm wagons are pulled by tractors and trucks. Wagons are used for [[transportation]] of people or [[good (accounting)|goods]]. Wagons are distinguished from [[cart]]s (which have two wheels), and from lighter four-wheeled vehicles such as [[carriage]]s. A wagon could be pulled by one animal or by several, often in pairs. Sometimes, the word ''wagon'' is also used for [[railroad car]]s (not motorized, for goods or passengers), and the word is a part / the usual short form of [[station wagon]], the non-British term for a sedan (saloon) with an extended rear cargo area. Other names: estate (car) / shooting brake (UK), break (F), station sedan (Aus), Kombi (generally in [[German language|German]], in [[English language|English]] also varied to combi), Variant ([[Volkswagen|VW]] models), Caravan ([[General Motors|GM]]'s [[Opel]] models), Avant ([[Audi]]'s wagons), Touring ([[BMW]]'s wagons). ==See also== {{col-begin}}THEY RIDE THESE BABYS ON 22 {{col-2}} *[[Araba (carriage)|Araba]] *[[Baby transport#Pushable vehicles|Baby carriage]] *[[Buckboard]] *[[Carriage]] *[[Cart]] *[[Conestoga wagon]] *[[Dolly]] *[[Dolly (trailer)]] *[[Kart racing|Go-cart]] *[[Golf cart]] *[[Hackney carriage]] *[[Horse-drawn vehicles]] *[[Lorry (horse-drawn)]] *[[bus|Omnibus]] {{col-2}} *[[Ox-wagon]] *[[Baby transport#Pushable vehicles|Perambulator]] *[[Prairie schooner]] * [[Radio Flyer (company)|Radio Flyer]] [[toy wagon]] *[[Soapbox (car)|Soapbox]] *[[Stagecoach]] *[[Surrey (disambiguation)#Surrey|Surrey]] *[[Trolley (horse-drawn)]] *[[Twenty mule team]] *[[Vardo (gypsy wagon)]] *[[Wagon train]] *[[Wagon-wheel effect]] *[[Wheel chair]] {{col-end}} {{vehicle-stub}} [[Category:Wagons| ]] [[Category:Dutch loanwords]] [[Category:Animal-powered vehicles]] [[de:Fuhrwerk (Stellwagen)]] [[fr:chariot]] [[hu:Kocsi]] [[la:Carrus]] [[nl:Wagen]] [[pl:fura]] [[pt:Carroça]] [[pdc:Waage]] [[ru:Повозка]] [[tr:Araba]] [[wa:tchår]]
