Default Falcon Heavy transporter-erector

Does anyone have more "size" data for the FH TE than that is 212 feet
tall?

I understand it is winched up the ramp at Pad 39A, and that
railroad-style rails are on the ramp, but only as guidance features.

Does it go from the assembly building to the ramp by being pulled by a
tractor? The pictures I've seen of a Falcon Heavy being transported
are either close enough to the rocket to not show a tow vehicle, or too
far away.

Bonus points if you have the information for the F9 TE.

In case of fire, exit the building before tweeting about it.
