Abstract
Reconfigurable buggies are described, designed to releasably connect two individual buggies to form one in-line tandem buggy. Methods of coupling and uncoupling are also described along with a connection detail kit that a consumer may look to purchase separately to a buggy or buggies. In one aspect, the buggies are releasably coupled via a connection detail so that the first buggy is linked ahead of the second buggy via the connection detail to form an in-line tandem buggy. An advantage of the above may include versatility to the consumer allowing them to purchase individual buggies and separately a connection detail. This means the consumer may use the two buggies individually or combined together and operable by one person.

- and
- a base section;
- wherein, when the first buggy and the second buggy are releasably coupled together via the connection detail:
- the second buggy connection members on one end of the linking member couple with the base section, the connection member rods on an opposing end of the plate of the linking member couple with the second buggy;
- the base section has a first end that engages the first buggy and a second end that couples to the plate of the linking member;
- and
