I have seen them do both so just the trailer is realistic as well.

Cool build. I see these trailers all the time, and thought it would make a neat project. Good to see something totally different. Let us know how it turns out. You are off to a great start. These trailers have such low bellies. Don't get it hung up on the railroad tracks!

Nice work. Your trailer looks great. Your ball screw looks up to the task of lifting. Industrial grade parts!
