To izgleda ovako, imam to u kontekstu nekog prevoda u kome se pominje aukcija starih predmeta.

(irski poštanski) kvadricikl (dresina)
Explanation:
kvadricikl - vozilo na 4 točka, pri čemu su ovi "irish mail carts" bili u bezbroj različitih varijanti. Mislim da ovo "irski poštansli" čak može i da se izostavi:

This is an Irish Mail cart
...
That is really neat.... If it is an Irish Mail cart, what would bring it to the US? I bet it has a very interesting story behind it.. Thanks for sharing!
...
They were mass produced in many forms, it's just a generic name based on the original design & use.

An early quadracycle, the 'Irish Mail', was similar to railroad handcars used by railroad workers to inspect tracks.

Tako da i moj predlog "irska poštanska dresina" po meni dolazi u obzir jer je "handcar" upravo dresina:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handcar
A handcar (also known as a pump trolley, pump car, jigger, Kalamazoo,[1] or draisine (powered or unpowered) in many other parts of the world) is a railroad car powered by its passengers, or by people pushing the car from behind

Termin dresina se nije uvek odnosio samo na vozilo koje se kreće po šinama, već na sva vozila koja su "samohodna" (dakle nisu vučena kao što je do tada bio slučaj):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draisine
A draisine primarily refers to a light auxiliary rail vehicle, driven by service personnel, equipped to transport crew and material necessary for the maintenance of railway infrastructure.

The eponymous term is derived from German Baron Karl Christian Ludwig Drais von Sauerbronn, who invented his Laufmaschine (German for "running machine") in 1817, that was called Draisine (German) or Draisienne (French) by the press. It is the first reliable claim for a practically used bicycle, basically the first commercially successful two-wheeled, steerable, human-propelled machine commonly called a velocipede, nicknamed hobby-horse or dandy horse.[1]

Wabash Children's Irish Mail Quadricycle, about 1900

Ono što mene navodi na taj pojam "dresina" je pogon, tu ručicu vozač pokreće kod ovog vozila na isti način kao što se to radi kod dresine.
