Filmed March 2018.

Now this was a rather strange elevator system! But a fun one, and definitely at this point more interesting and fun than the North Tower being they completely RUINED those!!!! These elevators originally were Otis Touch Sensitive, then modded in the 90s to Otis Elevonic 411M with Concave Sticky Series 2 fixtures, and just like the North Tower, these got modded (AGAIN for these) in 2017 with Otis Elevonic 411M with MAD Touch 2 Go fixtures with BS Moon door controls. However, what makes this elevator system strange is while 2 elevators are now completely modded, with new controllers, cabs, motors, fixtures, etc., unlike the North Tower, the call stations are still original (from their previous mod) and they still have some character because they also kept the lanterns the same, and the Vintage Otis Elevator Bells as well!!! Now, for what makes this elevator system strange, not just the fact the call stations, lanterns, bells and old dispatch system is intact, but they kept 1 elevator original!!!! (from the first mod) You're probably thinking the same thing I did at the time I recorded this, they just finished modding Elevator 2, and just hadn't started working on Car 3 yet, but NOPE!! According to this video, (   • Video  ) This system has remained this way since at least December 2017!!!! 2 elevators are now completely modded again, while 1 still is the same from modernization #1, and still has the famous "Grandma" voice. Also, what I also found strange is the 2 completely modded elevators had their lanterns incorrectly facing up on 40, where the one that was original from the first mod had it correctly facing the right direction, down. Also, the newly modded elevator I rode had a weird glitch where its' doors shut, and then opened only to shut again immediately, so minor glitches, but I will say, I do like this mod more than on the North Tower. And no, it's not necessarily just the fact they kept 1 elevator original along with the lanterns and call stations, but the completely modded one I rode actually went FASTER than it did before mod, when the North Tower Elevators are now slower after mod. I was told the service elevators are original, either from building date or from the first mod, but I couldn't ride due to construction. Anyways with that being said, enjoy the video, of this rather Strange, Weird and Wonky, but FUN and Interesting Elevator System!!!

I did also get to film these 2 years ago when all 3 were still original from the first mod, here's a link to that video:    • Otis Traction Elevators at Westin Sea...
