Hand-Pulled and Hand-Pushed Carts

Carts and barrows moved by human muscle alone, from the wheelbarrow to the pulled rickshaw. An entry belongs here when the cited article calls the vehicle a rickshaw, hand cart or wheelbarrow. It excludes animal-drawn carts and carriages. Entries are placed by what their own cited article says, so each one sits in the narrowest group its source supports, and the group page lists it beside the other members. It is one of the groups under the Animal- and Human-Powered Overland Vehicles subcategory of the Transport atlas, which has its own browse page listing every group and member.
