I’ve been on this before. To this day it’s still one of the coolest elevators I’ve seen!
I love it
@@DieselDucy epic
@PAelevators And I wanted to ride a Lexan
@@SirensAndElevators i want to ride that elevator too.
From another video I saw that this was installed in 1910. For 1910 this was insanely advanced, with 2 speed logic and automatic push button logic. How amazing and a true show of American engineering. Happy 4th
I believe it was originally manual, and upgraded to automatic operation later on
I believe so. Sam may know more about it.
@@DieselDucy I wonder what brand is this?
Don't beat yourself up over that! This elevator video is worth this national day in the US because it's a very true treasure, or say "goldmine".
thanks :)
Diesel Ducey, this is extraordinary & such a rarity & great find! Thanks for the video
Glad you enjoyed it
@@DieselDucy Yes of course! Just keep bringing us the cool stuff 🙂 & it's always great to hear from you as well
This thing is both fascinating and amazing!
It was epic!
Happy 4th of July!!!! Nice find!!
thanks!
This elevator was super cool to ride on! To this day, this is one of the COOLEST elevator that I've been on in person.
It was my favorite in Chicago.
This is absolutely incredible. That cab is also beautiful. I love how the light goes up towards the rounded ceiling. Happy Fourth 🇺🇸
You too and thanks for watching alex!
It’s amazing the speed it’s running these days, I thought it would be slower.
it was very fast.
These are definitely fast for a winding drum. Epic motor startup too!
Yes they are!
What an epic beauty!!
I haven’t seen any of these elevators before. Happy 4th of July
thanks!
WHOA!!!!!!!!

@@DieselDucy You can say that again! I've never seen anything like it!

Hey andrew, could you check up on the elevators at the hotel roanoake when possible? We havent seen them in awhile
sure!
Surprisingly fast for a 2 speed
it was!
Absolutely stunning. And happy fourth to you good sir 🇺🇸🇺🇸
thanks!
Never seen an elevator like that one before.
I'm just amazed this elevator is still allowed to operate. Looks amazing!
I know right? This was lightly modded in what appears to be the 60s or 70s. This was my favorite elevator in Chicago.
I love that elevator! The fixtures are nice as well. Happy 4th of July!
thanks!
Amazing! This is plenty "special" for me! How beautiful! 🇺🇲
thanks!
This is a reliance elevator, the panel was replaced by standard
Thanks for the info! Winding drum I assume?
@@DieselDucy yes. The motor is tandem geared too if memory serves me right
Quite a dandy birdcage elevator still running well 112 years later, yes build to last. Ten floors. I saw the sheaves and roping anchored to the top of the cab. This installation might have an independent counterweight, not wrapped around the drum. Just two ropes on the cab, going to the drum, wrapped around.
I wish i had looked at the drive system better.
Epic elevator the manuel shaftdoors outside are very interesting.I love it.
Glad you like them!
Wow! That is a beautiful elevator. Happy 4th of July!
it is also spectacular.
i love it
Wow it really bounces when it levels
it does lol
Imagine if a bird went on this
LOL
I’d love to see this one day
Not gonna happen
this is in a private building. NOT easy to get to.
@@jacksonslaterelevatorraila6444 well if you don’t have the mental capacity to formulate an understandable sentence, you surely aren’t able to get into a building like this
@@SPS8elevatorsoflakecounty I filmed in a private paper mill there largest freighter having a capacity of 40’000 lbs. also featured Fast Kones with hazardous location fixtures so yeah I think I can formulate an understandable sentence. Good day to you!!
@@jacksonslaterelevatorraila6444 filming a paper mill has nothing to do with forming a sentence
Incredibly nice elevator, and this is definitely not a winding drum, but a full-scale traction elevator. As with brand, I'm going to say that this might be either an Otis, a Westinghouse K&H (Kaestner and Hecht), or a very early G&S (Gallagher and Speck). By the way, Happy Independence Day!
This is winding drum. You can see the machine below the elevator on the first floor. Unfortunately I didn’t film it
It’s double-geared winding drum installed by Reliance
a school with a birdcage lift wow
lol
Happy 4th July day
thanks!
Lifts are so cool in the 🇺🇸
i love ones in Europe :)
