Read the excerpt from The Building of Manhattan.

A temporary, small narrow-gauge track system was installed on each floor as it was needed. This enabled the material to be moved from the truck at ground level onto dump carts, raised by elevator to the designated floor, wheeled onto the track, and moved quickly to the exact spot needed. Turntables built into the track allowed the carts to be shifted about in any direction.

Which question can be answered only if an illustration accompanies the text?

What did turntables built into the track allow?
How were dump carts raised to designated floors?
When was a track system installed on a floor?
What does a turntable built into a track look like?
