Actually those fixtures appear to actually be late "AE". Also that indicator is actually original to that elevator from 1987. I believe it was sometime around 1986 or '87 when they went from the back-lit LCD indicator (basically what One Oxford Centre in downtown Pittsburgh used to have before they pointlessly modded it -- probably due to new Pittsburgh city codes or something stupid) to the LED one which you would normally see on Schindler RTs and especially MTs after Westinghouse discontinued producing elevators sometime around the early '90s [I'd say about 1991 at least] when Schindler completely bought them out.
I loved the lion handrails.
Me too! Unfortunately it’s now modernized with ICE this October/November!
Installed in 1987.
For a cab that's from 1987, it appeared to be in EXCELLENT shape.
Indeed, and the brass panels make it even nicer.

I know the buttons are Westinghouse AE but I meant the indicator was actually Schindler RT for my guess. Patrick filmed this elevator way back in 2009

The indicator’s most likely original. It’s an EPCO LED indicator, which mostly Schindler used, but also Westy used in their final-days.
