Just out of curiosity -- all the prototype bumpers "Hayes style" I have seen do not sit on a base. The ends of the main beams butted up against the last tie of the spur and the front members were either fixed to the inside of the rail or not fixed at all. Is the Walthers' bumper with its sled under it prototypical? It seems that a car hitting a post like the Walthers would just cause the post to slide along being unable to dig into the ground. Your thoughts and opinions are appreciated!
