A Double Bullock Cart, Ceylon.

Bullock carts in Ceylon are known as bandies or Tamul wandi

Bullock carts like the one shown here were normally used for carting coffee or rice. These two-wheeled wagons were covered with plaited coconut leaves. The bullocks would on average haul a fully laden cart 20 miles per day.
