Yes, these were built.  I have (not readily accessible and curved with age
so not very scannable) a stereo view of one of these.  These drawings have
also appeared . . . . somewhere.  And they appear in one of the Edison early
films going through, no less, a rotary car dumper.  I am sure that the last
instance can be found with some diligent Google searching.
