Montgomery G&P Hydraulic Elevator At Dillard's At Valley View Mall

[patricknedz]

these were my favorite Montgomery buttons, its a shame they closed this, I like the dry power unit too, also, could you smell the elevator coming, on this before? on relay controlled elevators you can smell the oil I know you noticed that on other elevators too.

I used to work at this Dillards :( I miss it there...that was the best job ever...all except for the evil nazi gay guy frank that was our asst. store manager. oh and uh great elevator and all....

that looks like the one at my macys and sounds like it to but the doors are a bit more noisy at mine then at dillards

maby they didnt fix the light on the 3rd floor maby it just burnt out the glass elevator at monroville mall the buttos light up for no reasian when someone doesnt press it what ever floor its going to the button on that floor would light up. for example if someone gets in from the 1st floor and hits 2 then the call button on the 2nd floor lights up same for the 1st floor and if someone on the 2nd floor hits the call button and the elevators on the 1st floor the 2nd floor button inside will lite.

No, it's a hydraulic elevator.

[dheaton5]

is that a traction?

[musicfreakcc]

It's a bit too slow for a traction.

[patricknedz]

the elevator at macys monroville mall is traction and slow

According to Wikipedia and the Dillard's website this store is closing at the end of this month on August 30th I need to visit here one last time and ride the elevator before it closes

Now I have ridden a traction that was as slow as a hydraulic before.

These Montgomery elevators (older type) seem unsafe to me. I prefer newer type Montgomery elevators

I actually like these elevators - and the escalators, too.

It's great that I'm seeing a lot of Montgomery videos here on YouTube - a YouTuber from Austin, TX, just recently uploaded a heap of elevator and escalator videos from places like Barton Creek Square mall and the UT Austin campus - many of them Montgomery!

Montgomery Elevator now known as KONE

I remember riding this exact same elevator many years ago!

Ooh, Montgomery "Globe and Parallelograms" from the 60s to 80s - those are my absolute favorite elevators and escalators!
