View of a Midland Railway's horse drawn heavy goods delivery vehicle at Lawley Street Goods Depot on 30 June 1909. The wagon was used to deliver very heavy goods vehicles and this is evident not just because two horses are attached to the wagon. The wagon is clearly a more substantial vehicle than the others seen in earlier views and the low floor height would have been essential for delivering heavy items that would in all probability been loaded and unloaded by hand.
