Milk Delivery A7

[Bob Culver]

Back to the original posting ...it does not seem a very practical vehicle, although suppose it could stop  with minimum obstruction and venture down narrow lanes. If the churns had no tap must have all been very laborious and difficult to avoid rain entry.I can remember milk being home delivered into a billy but cannot recall seeing the vehicle used. To about 1950 in large city horses with  4 wheel wagons still in use, but milk bottled. In hilly Wellington the road often is below footpath and houses. The horse would walk on its own to meet the next descent of the footpath.
