Ox cart.

World's Largest Ox Cart

Field review by the editors.

Crookston, Minnesota

Ox carts once plodded through Crookston on their way from Canada to St. Paul. They were the long-haul truckers of their day, and Crookston remembers them with its Ox Cart Days every mid-August. And, also, with the World's Largest Ox Cart, which stands next to the county museum. It's sizable enough to have been pulled by Babe the Blue Ox, but there's no indication that a Babe or a Bunyan have ever stood next to it.
