Seller here in Aus listed this on ePay as a "Car or Train Height Changer" and funnily enough in his round about way he got it 100% right  !

Its actually from a Johann Hoefler train set ... where the trolleybus runs around an inclined broken oval , hooning up the incline into the curve, into the above pictured elevator , where it halts and descends under its own weight , to drive off and head round again

I currently have him looking for the track bits as its an estate sale he is clearing out , but even if they dont turn up it shouldnt be hard to find some track to fit ( 26-28mm if memory is correct , smaller than O )

Stolen web pic of complete set



Odd that a passenger set in such good condition would be missing its wheels.

And re the level-changer, thanks for showing me yet another thing I'd never seen before.
