Awesome Westinghouse Traction Elevators @ Hilton Hotel in Atlanta, GA

(7-16-23)
This is my last upload from Atlanta!
These are the FAMOUS elevators that were known to be the first elevators ever filmed back in 1993, before I became an elevator enthusiast 19 years later (2012)! These are Westinghouse Selectomatics that were slapped on with PTL Performer and these used to have AE fixtures along with the dinner bell. These elevators are absolutely amazing! The cabs on these are super nice, the glass ones are much more nicer though. These are very fast for 29 floors, 30 for external glass, although I can only go up to 25 on the elevators that don't serve NR because 26-28 are executive levels, but I did make it one floor up to 26 at least. Interesting the glass elevators (both internal glass and external glass) only serve Trader Vic's, however, the exterior glass ones only serve Nikolai's Roof. Would love to take a revisit to these some other time because of how awesome and fast these were. Sadly the right external glass elevator was broken during my visit but at least the other one was working. And hopefully, these won't get modernized at all as these are still in good shape. And also the lighting on atrium is beautiful!

Ok remember 31-41 are the fastest glass elevators in the Marriott Atlanta because I flew here from California recently

[@mariokart8715]

The 42-47 ones are a bit slower; unusual for the number of floors.

[@elevcarwashsirensandmore21]

​@@matthewlindstrom8728They must have increased the speed on 31-41 because when I was in Atlanta. 42-47 were the fastest. So they must have updated the controller.

[@matthewlindstrom8728]

I been there in person also 31-41 are the fastest glass elevators in the Marriott Atlanta because I been there too

[@matthewlindstrom8728]

I live in California btw delta was the best airline from California to here

[@mariokart8715]

The high rise ones there are a bit slower. Unusual. For the number of floors.

[@elevcarwashsirensandmore21]

​@@mariokart8715They actually are 1000 on the high rise. The Mid High Rise (31-41) is at 800.

Did you get the Westin Peachtree Plaza.

[@MilwaukeeCountyElevators]

Unfortunately, I did not due to time

[@elevcarwashsirensandmore21]

@@MilwaukeeCountyElevators Darn. There are plenty of videos of these elevators at the 4 hotels everywhere. Hopefully, I can go soon because I really want to ride these elevators.

[@mariokart8715]

Too many elevators out of order at this hotel.

I did notice that more than I usually do.
