A wagon (sometimes called a waggon) is a type of vehicle that has four wheels. It can be used to transport goods, food, supplies, and sometimes people. It can be pulled by a person, by animals, or by a vehicle (such as a tractor).[1] A wagon used to be called a wain. A person who builds or repairs wagons is called a wainwright. A person who drives wagons is called a "wagoner",[2][3] a "teamster", a "bullocky" (Australia), a "muleteer", or simply a "driver".
