10 . A play set for toy vehicles, comprising:
a frame including a base defining a first track portion lying on a first plane and a second track portion lying on a second plane spaced from said first plane; a lift coupled to said frame and movable between a lowered position adjacent said first track portion and a raised position adjacent said second track portion; and a first roller assembly pivotally connected to said base, said first roller assembly including a first roller movable between a first position adjacent said base and a second position adjacent said second track portion, said first roller engageable with and movable by said lift from said first position to said second position when said lift is moved from said lowered position to said raised position.
11 . The play set of claim 10 , further comprising:
a second roller assembly pivotally connected to said frame, said second roller assembly including a second roller engageable with and movable by said lift when said lift is moved from said lowered position to said raised position.
