Mule and Wheeler

My father worked for a 100 year old plus construction company. In the main
office they had pictures of these working in the Atlanta area. They would have a team of two mules pulling them. They were called Mule and Wheelers.
My father who started in construction in the 50`s meet older men that had
operated these things back in the teens and twenty`s:professor

I have built over 20 horse drawn equipment toys so I took pictures of it to build a model of it , but never got time yet. Another fun little all steel project.
