What are the 'tumbrils of the revolution' in the first chapter of A Tale of Two Cities?
A tumbril is a farm cart, such as might be used to carry manure to the fields. In the late 1780s a lot of these had been brought to Paris to assist with transporting human remains from the Cimetiere des Innocents (now the site of the Forum des Halles) to the catacombs (entered in Place Denfert-Rochereau). It was these carts that were used to transport condemned people from prison to the guillotine.
