Sad news is that the wagon came from a company called Minerva run by Chris Klein. Ordered it Monday and he said it would arrive Tuesday (yesterday). Tragically he passed away yesterday. What a shock.

That's very sad news - so sudden. I just looked at their site and read the "news".

Sad isn’t it Platelayer. Ordered mine Monday lunchtime and it arrived Tuesday morning. His service was second to none.
