PTE-124 Model Train Elevator - 124 cm (49")

PTE-124 Model Train Elevator

Motorized Vertical Lift System – 124 cm (49") Platform for Z to HO/OO Scales

The PTE-124 by Proses is a high-precision vertical train elevator designed to transport model trains between layout levels with exceptional stability and smoothness.
With a 124 cm (49") platform, it supports full-length train sets from Z to HO/OO scales — depending on the number of units — and provides an ideal solution where traditional ramps or helices are not practical.
For longer trains, we recommend the larger PTE-186 (186 mm / 73") version.
