I really liked the buttons and floor indicator from 2011 I see they removed the flood lights on the lobby floor. Least the clock is still there and I hope working
To be honest I really like the new ThyssenKrupp elevators, especially the cabs. You would think that putting such modern fixtures on an old elevator would ruin it, but this particular job actually pulls it off. And of course, the video is awesome!
Elevation Station Productions the only thing I don't like. they should have carried the art deco look over to the elevator. the mod they did back in the eighties look eighties and now this mod looks 2000s. when they renovated the cab this time they should have given it more of an art deco appearance
Thanks for showing me a Simplex pull station! Looks like an older 2099 or 4099 single action pull station. The only major difference between a 2099 and a 4099 is that a 2099 is conventional while the 4099 is usually addressable, but can be converted to conventional after you receive it.
I noticed that this building treats its viewers to a rare treat in Western culture: elevators that do not skip the 13th floor. With that said, another throwback video of you touring the elevators in the Lawyers Building in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania skips the 13th floor in its way up to 25.
Usually I like newer elevators better, but IMO, these were nicer and more fascinating when they were US elevators. I still think the mod is nice though. And yes I saw the hidden dieselducy!
hidden "DieselDucy" mascot and icon viewed of face of spinning governor face during machine room tour.DD today asked viewers today to find and report where it appeared.The mascot or icon is a very cute train locomotive, he opens the introduction of many of his videos.
Great video and tour! Btw, are these geared or gearless and what is the difference and is there a difference in the type of buildings they are used in (number of floors)?
Very nice elevators, and because of the upper floors being locked off, what are now on floors 10-17? Regular offices, communications rooms, or are they vacant? Also, why are floors 10-17 now locked?
Were the Haughton machines replaced by ThyssenKrupp when they did the mod? Also I think you should continue making the "hidden dieselducy's" cause I think its funny and cool at the same time. :D
I've mentioned this before but the US Elevator buttons were much easier to navigate for persons with cognitive disabilities or dementia/Alzheimer's like my dear Father. He can't handle the buttons with the number NEXT to the button... including the Impulse lowrise and highrise cars in our own apartment building... but has absolutely no trouble when the number is ON the button... in particular a few US originals still around town. I think this trend (which started with Impulse 29 years ago) is a mistake. A big part of an elevator's purpose is for accessibility.

I think the basement is going to be an underground restaurant and I think if you try again to go to the 17th floor you might have to have a badge with you and hopefully you can try to get a view on the 17th floor
hi I'm a lift technician here in Brazil, I really like your videos
Now that's a classy and well done mod!
It is a good mod, however I wish they had used more art deco in the car.
Yes!
It is a good mod, however they could be more "art deco"
that haughton machinery is excellent.
+Sam Sitar it is amazing
Love your videos Andrew. Great job
Nice editing job!
Darn, I wish I could have seen these when they still had the US buttons
+thewildeeper thanks so much. They were nice.
The modification seemed intresting. ThyssenKrupp did a fairly good job. I'd say they worked hard.
I saw dieselducy in the machine room on the Governor :P
Cool
I really liked the buttons and floor indicator from 2011
I see they removed the flood lights on the lobby floor.
Least the clock is still there and I hope working
+CamperMike the clock does still work. I miss the us buttons as well. I wish I could have gotten them
LOVE your work!

***** This does look kinda art deco with the walls, but yeah they should have added more "art" to the deco.
That is exactly what I was thinking. The 80s us mod was NOT AT ALL fitting to a historic building like this.
I agree with you, Andrew.

OH yeah :). I got alot of fire alarm fans that watch my videos. In the future, ill try to show fire alarm and related stuff in my videos when i film .
DieselDucy cool! I also think you do a very awesome job on your videos! From the editing to the elevators, even your commentary, it's all awesome!
stampycatfan01 thanks so much. that really means a lot to me
DieselDucy no problem! I always get excited when you upload a new video, as I know it will be exciting!
+stampycatfan01 THANKS SO much for your loyal viewing
That's awesome dieselducy
Love your vids I watched hours and hours of them
Thank you TK. It's a good mod. I do like the original elevators as well.
And it has a very nice sound. That might be from Northern which is also partnered with TK.
+Tobey Sze it's a good job however I wish they kept an art deco look
DieselDucy Yeah. It's better so it's feels like a historic place in Lynchburg.

I bet pretty much all people who watched this video saw the real life train engine who’s name is DieselDucy! Also, this video is awesome!
The camera work you did at the beginning wasn't lousy.It was funny! Here's a part of this:
00:22-"Guess what time is this?"
"It's Elevatour time!!!!!"
Also! This is an amazing video! I've been adding your newer videos to my favourites lately!
+DanielMar 1228 well I'm very happy I'm pleasing you :) that's my goal to keep you guys happy ; )
That is an awesome elevator. I would love to see those elevators someday!
Usually I like newer elevators better, but IMO, these were nicer and more fascinating when they were US elevators. I still think the mod is nice though. And yes I saw the hidden dieselducy!

+Corrina And Leny Corrina And Leny yep :) I hope it adds a fun and classic touch to my video :)
I wish parts were saved. :(
Me too :(
Love your intro. By the way, what is that song called?
Plus, nice elevators, MPE (S), and nice 17th floor view.
Awesome job Andrew.
THANKS SO MUCH!!!
Also cool have they have a switch for the shaft to lite up.
miner boy yeah. too bad b is no longer accessible
In 9 years, this elevator system will be exactly 100 years old
Yep
I wish you had gotten a close up of the power plate on the side of the machine. I'd like to see how much power these lifts consume.
Hi, I love this video!
Did you get parts from this place or no?
He got the button parts from the Elwood PK Garage elevator
5:17 DieselDucy spinning on the governor!
Desilducy you should make a video explaing each photo in your intro.
Great video
PAelevators is ugly
Elizabeth Kern Excuse Me.
+PAelevators thanks.
Now now. Please be nice :)
words mean nothing its your opinion and if you think I'm ugly i don't care
what were these before these were Haughton
Haughton originally then modded by US in 1971 than modded again by TKE
there is a call cancel button but in the elmwood parking garage elevator there's no call cancel button.
Hey DieselDucy I really want to met you and I really like eleavtors
Great video and tour! Btw, are these geared or gearless and what is the difference and is there a difference in the type of buildings they are used in (number of floors)?
+Ali Hafeez geared traction. I'm gonna try to see if they will let me visit the machine room again sometime
Very nice elevators, and because of the upper floors being locked off, what are now on floors 10-17? Regular offices, communications rooms, or are they vacant? Also, why are floors 10-17 now locked?
+CaptainElevator42189 u can go up to 14 during business hours.
That's still good, so I guess 15-17 are either vacant or have communication rooms up there.
i did get up to 14 at about 4:00PM one day and 17 is cellular equipment not sure about 15-16
+CaptainElevator42189 17 is primarily leased to cell phone people as there are a bunch of cell antennas on top of this building.
So I guess it's now safe to say that going up to 17 is now history.
ALSO can you please do a detailed look at the Elmwood us panel?
+thyssencar 95 will do soon :)
DieselDucy ok cool
Were the Haughton machines replaced by ThyssenKrupp when they did the mod? Also I think you should continue making the "hidden dieselducy's" cause I think its funny and cool at the same time. :D
+Alex Lentell not sure about the machines. Anyway the hidden diesel ducy will be appearing a lot in future videos :)
Thyssenkrupp did a great job
you could try the stairs from 9 and see if the hall doors are locked or clime to 17 then ride down
I think this is apartments now.
@@DieselDucy Correct. I can't really say that I'm surprised, because at the time of the redevelopment, the building was pretty much abandoned.
what is Brendan's channel?
The new mod looks better. Shame they locked the Basement and floors 10 - 17 :( . The view was great
I think the old US fixtures fitted the overall look of the building better. ThyssenKrupp did a fine and dandy modernization job though.
+WestCoast Elevators me too
Ive never see old us fixtures before. im still looking around Rochester too see if i can find any us elevators
DieselDucy frddddd cause north
I see why some floors are locked. It requires a keycard to be scanned first
Stephen Chao ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Hey dieselducy did u see the machine room yet?
I did. It is in another video.
I saw a dieselducy in the machine room on the safety governor
J Bush awesome :) I wonder what he was doing in there
DieselDucy I guess he was just dieselducy being dieselducy LOL
+J Bush yep :)) we never know where we will find diesel ducy next
+J Bush that's right. Make sure u keep an eye out for him in future videos and if u see him. Let me know.
2:07 I could even see the counterweight at the top up there
Cool

Now now, please be nice.
I like your observation. I see the purpose of having the number on the button. Seems like a good call to me.

you have a us elevator car panel that looks like that?
DieselDucy being DieselDucy on the governor. :P

I think the basement is going to be an underground restaurant and I think if you try again to go to the 17th floor you might have to have a badge with you and hopefully you can try to get a view on the 17th floor
Wait so these were originally haughton then modded by us then modded by tke?
Yes
What's an exception, Andrew?
Don’t know
are floors 2 thru 8 unlocked?
In my opinion, these elevators were in no need of modernization. And the fact they locked the elevators is horrible.
0/10!
I definitely agree
no u
Lol
Old motor looks awesome
I am gonna try to arrange a tour of the new machines. it may be a while though.
DieselDucy Is the new one have a MRL motor
+Blaze Anderson standard overhead drive
is it still the haughton motor
Blaze Anderson I'm not sure. I would have to try to arrange another machine room visit
LOL. Great hiding place for Dieselducy.
+VegasBlog yep :) I plan on doing this on a regular basis.
DieselDucy u
when are you going to do another video of the market parking garage
J Bush I can do one next week if u like
DieselDucy yes please thank you and also the Elmwood garage please thank you
DieselDucy thank you hope you have a very Merry Christmas and stay warm 🎄🎁🎅🌲🍵☕⛪
+J Bush sure thing.
It leveled quickly, too.
These were great elevators
Noticed your hidden dieselducy in the governor lol. BTW conngrats for 30000 subs!
+SFOFlightSim lol. Awesome. And THANKS so ki much. You guys got me here
10:46 bth floor 17th 16th 15th 14th 13th 12th 11th floor looked 10:55
Yep
Is now haugton at the allied musuem
I bet they are now Momentum.
I THINK they are still geared traction but im not sure. I am gonna try to arrange another tour of this machine room.
That huge indicator though. Sad those were modded!
Btw I saw dieselducy on the govener.
+ELEVATORS AND NORTH AMERICA I did too. I wonder what he was doing there.
The cabs are are original because they still have the Haughton logo.
Both of them
It's awesome that they kept the original Haughton floor plates intact.
it is.
why did they lock the higher floors
Not sure
Atualy he was filming on his t900 because that’s what he had in 20011
VERY CLOSE to the Elmwood Parking.
+Oregon Elevator Fan but taller :)
Wow....after years of being on youtube they had to lock everything from 10 and above? That sucks. But other than that it IS a beautiful elevator.
Very nice
Same mod as Elmwood Parking Deck
why were these Modded
+J Bush probably hard to get parts for
If you get out on the roof sometime let’s check out that Verizon cell site.
I think the manufacturer's name is pronounced Hall.ton. The " a" and" o" sounds are short.
ThyssenKrupp’s favourite thing is to modernize elevators. And that, is something that has to stop.
I almost got busted by security guards in 9:19 in the elevator
thyssenkrupp modnernized the elevators at the allied arts building
Why Can't they ever Be Modded by KONE
This elevator kinda looks like Modernized Soviet elevator
Karkeris1 gamer lol
Unfortunately, this building is pretty much abandoned. It's going to be converted to condos soon.
AWESOME US ELEVATOR it socks that there are not any in Arkansas I have not EVER!!!! seen 1 us elevator
thyssencar 95 the west memphis casino has a us elevator with the white buttons but are staff only and are locked out
crapper1 8
crapper1 oh the circle buttons
Same
10:46 bth floor 17th 16th 15th 14th 13th 12th 11th floor looked

Correct
I Love you

Basements and foors 17 are locked
Yep

I guess that's the tallest elevator that US installed
Good!
Nice
looks like the elevator at elmwood parking garage!
cool very awesome
+coke man thanks so much
Hat was so funny a hidden desl (sorry spell check) ducy logo
I still see the old handle when they were haughton before they were modded by US, then ThyssenKrupp

Haughton/US/TKE
They were US.
yep!
