I bought, about two months ago, a folding hand truck for carrying my 4x5
monorail case.

It is cast aluminum and fiberglass/plastic and has pretty good sized wheels,
so it rolls very easily, and folds up very flat, to about 3 inches thick.
It weighs about 10 - 12 pounds, and can carry about 300 pounds.  It can be
set up with one hand!  I paid about US$80 for it.

I can put the case (Calumet, about 12x14x21 inches), my large canvas bag
with film and accessories, the folding step stool, and the wooden tripod on
the cart all at once and comfortably walk away with it...

It's not for really rugged terrain (slippery rocks, mountain climbing),
though.
