![]() Conestoga Style Covered Wagon
![]() Large Capacity with the Traditional Conestoga Styling One of the most perfect vehicles ever produced in America, the Conestoga wagon was named for Pennsylvania's Conestoga Valley, where it was first built. These freighter wagons were used between the 1750's and 1840's and could haul 5 tons of goods. Considering the size of most of these wagons, the lightest yet strongest woods are used for the heavier construction of the long bed and heavy bolsters. Hand-forged irons are an important part of the overall design of the wagon, consisting of ornate tool box hardware, hound plates, axe carriers, and stay chains.
