[CBQ] FM-14 Flat with Detector Car Load

["Richard Gortowski via groups.io" <rgortowski=aol.com@groups.io>]

I've attached two photos from Burlington Bulletin #39 showing detector set 9050 and 9060 loaded on an FM-14 flat car to be hauled in a work train to the next job site.  I have the Overland detector cars and I'm starting to build the FM-14 resin flat car for inclusion on my layout.  Does anyone have an idea about how these cars were loaded and unloaded?  My guess would be that there would be a specially constructed ramp with rails that would be hauled in the supporting baggage cars.  If that's correct, I'd be interested to know how they would handle these unwieldy, heavy ramps? 

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Rich G.
