I don't think there is anything quite like it
Here are a few more photos. They should also be in Bike Forums, but lost for searching after the photo manager was removed.

If I was doing it again (or if I rebuild this bike), I'd probably use a vintage MTB for the front triangle. Somewhere in the bike I just get too much flex. Plus, I hurried a bit too much, and nothing is in perfect alignment.
Oh, also I dislike the wide Q-Factor required for the 20 x 4 1/4 tires, so I'd use an idler if I used wide tires again, but probably limit myself to 3" or so on the rear. I've had troubles with the rear derailleur dragging, and will hopefully get a Suntour triple pulley derailleur installed soon. No front derailleur yet.
I don't use the cargo bike for a lot of hauling, it just isn't as convenient as I had expected, although I never got panniers made yet either. But, I do use it for towing.
There are a number of rear loading cargo bikes available, just different.
