milk wagon

noun, buckboard

“There’d be a lineup of milk wagons and the odd truck.”

“My grandmother was a good horsewoman, and we were riding on a buckboard, what you’d see as a buckboard today, but in those days they called it a milk wagon.”

“They used to call them milk wagons. They didn’t call them buckboards like they do in the movies, but they were essentially the same thing. They were a small light buggy with a seat, and one or two horses to pull them.”

“We took our old coats off and put them on the milk wagon and went down to the school which was just a little ways away, and washed up at the cold pump.”
