    I wonder if there are more buttons underneath that plastic overlay.

      Probably; notice the buttons don't line up correctly.

    As for ones with relay logic, I would love to see what a motor room would look like in a 40+ floor tower! I bet the relay panel is freaking huge for such a lot of floors, if there are even any lifts that serve that many floors that still use relay logic around.

    I think that this may be one of the best lifts ever installed in any building.

    There's used to be one similar here in Thailand. Which also goes 42 floors. But it goes 2.5 or 3 m/s +2 of them are glass. But now they replaced the lifts with a 3rd generation Mitsubishi. And the glass lifts are now no longer glass.

    Surfing that could be interesting, if it's even possible? Would be interesting to see the motor room too.

      +Knuckles the Echidna These skyscrapers are very strict on security. To attempt to surf any of the lifts here would be totally insane. I imagine that all of the modernized lifts here have remote monitoring. Although the Express might not. I did find the service lift this time, which is in a quiet spot, but I was unable to call it. I need the Dewhurst key.

    I was working in this building during construction in 1976, when it was just the shell. No proper lifts then, just a metal cage on a wire, pulled up to the top by a crane. Hairy experience, for sure!

    I might be wrong, but I think there are floors 43 and 44 or some extra floor, which is served for power supply purposes.

      +HN02 was once in the Citigroup tower in Canary Wharf on the 27th floor as I knew someone who worked there....lifts were fairly fast. Once you've done lifts in New York skyscrapers there is no going back (or should that be "Down".....)
