GOIN' TO THE CORNER THE A.L. RENNIE EGG WAGON Egg wagons were common in western Prince Edward Island , providing a unique and personal service to customers in the rural communities. Egg wagons were run by Arthur Rennie of Elmsdale , his brother Fred Rennie of Alma and A. J. Pratt of Bloomfield Station . From a conversation with Keith Pratt he confirmed that all three egg wagons were of the same construction. The following information was taken from a school project written by Jamie Ellis and he got first-hand information from his grandmother Blanche Crockett , the daughter of Fred Rennie , who drove the Egg Wagon. Blanche related to Jamie that the wagon had a flat wagon base with a large box, medium box, and a small box. The large box at the back of the wagon was packed with chewing to¬ bacco, smoking tobacco, cotton, flannelette, sugar, tea and other groceries. The back Janice Ellis Coll .
