I was trying to figure out how that is steered. I see lines running to the front axel..do you know how they navigated such a long wagon along the streets?
Hi, it has one steering bar which the boy is holding on his left hand. This steering bar is then connected to the front axle through the two steel rods that you had rightly noticed below the platform to change the direction when needed. It’s a bit of ingenious design which the local fitters deploy on such carts. Hope this gives you some idea. Thanks 🙂
