wagon pinch bar

A device for moving railway wagons and locomotives short distances by hand. It consists of a cast-steel wedge-shaped tip with a wood handle. The tip is placed over the rail and under the wagon wheel and the up-and-down movement of the handle exerts sufficient pressure on the wheel to move the wagon.
