From the 1950s into the 1980s piggyback trailers were driven onto flatcars at yards and terminals. While this \"circus-style\" loading has since fallen out of favor for trailer loading, many loading ramps are still in place for special loads. They are also found at team tracks where cargo was lifted with a gantry crane. The Piggyback Ramps kit includes four ramps including a wood platform-ramp combination, a small clerk's office, overhead crane and a power pole. The Piggyback Ramps kit is one of a wide variety of Cornerstone HO Scale railroad structures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMolded in three colors and clear plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilds typical 1950s-1960s era trailer loading-unloading facility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRealistic detail for freight yards and terminals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse with WalthersMainline(R) piggyback flatcars (sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle and double-wide Circus-style trailer ramps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConcrete and wood trackside loading Ramps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTerminal office building\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverhead gantry crane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWood fence and power pole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDecal signs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinished models measure: Office: 1-3\/4 X 2-1\/2\" 4.4 x 6.3cm Wood Platform: 5-1\/2 x 2\" 13.9 x 5cm Wood Ramp: 2-3\/8 x 2\" 6 x 5cm Crane: 6 x 2\" 15 x 5cm Narrow Concrete Ramp: 5-5\/8 x 1-7\/16 14.2 x 3.6cm Wide Concrete Ramp: 5-5\/8 x 3-5\/8\" 14.2 x 9.2 Small Concrete Ramp 3-1\/4 x 1-1\/4\" 8.2 x 3.1cm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Walthers Cornerstone","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":37893665816742,"sku":"933-4048","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/1972\/4454\/products\/walthers-cornerstone-933-4048-ho-scale-piggyback-ramps-kit.jpg?v=1614127009","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterosehobbies.com\/products\/walthers-cornerstone-933-4048-ho-scale-piggyback-ramps-kit","provider":"White Rose Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
