A Minecart , as Kipplore or Lore called, is a rail car, which especially for the transport of bulk materials such as sand and slag is used. In contrast to the Grubenhunt , it usually has a tipping body.

These lorries are mainly used on field railways . However, they are also used in narrow-gauge or standard-gauge designs on trams for transporting your own equipment .

Further examples of lorries are wooden transport lorries, lattice box lorries for peat , tank lorries as mobile filling stations for extensive networks, brick drying lorries, personal lorries and work lorries with mobile track bending equipment. In removing the rubble from destroyed buildings after the Second World War , the trolleys played a prominent role in the use of the rubble railway .
