Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

A CAR-TRANSPORTER, which can rt be adapted to carry general goods and so obtain return loads is shown in patent No. 858,834. (Carrimore SixWheelers, Ltd., and A. Line, both of Carrimore Works, Great North Road, London, N.12.) The drawing shows a transporter on which vehicles can be carried on both the upper and lower decks. The slope of the decks makes them unsuitable for

alternative loads and the remedy proposed is to make the lower ramp (1) a detachable member. 858834 When this is removed from the position shown, turned upside down and replaced on the top deck (as indicated in chain lines at 2) it creates a large area of flat platform on both decks. This can be usefully employed when return loads are available.
