What is a Buckboard?

The buckboard is a four-wheeled wagon of simple construction meant to be drawn by a horse or other large animal. It is steered by its front wheels, which are connected to each other by a single axle.

The front and rear axle are connected by a platform of one or more boards to which the front axle is connected on a pivoting joint at its midpoint.

A buckboard wagon often carries a seat for a driver. Such a seat may be supported by springs. The main platform between axles is not suspended by springs like a carriage.
Originally designed for personal transportation in mountain regions, these distinctively American vehicles were widely used in newly settled regions of the United States.
