ThyssenKrupp Traction Elevators at IWK Health Centre (Blue Elevators)

[mrceleb2006]

As well, the IWK floor indicators I remember back then were B-1-M-3-4-5-6-7-8, but have changed to 0-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8.

The directional indicators above the IWK Health Centre elevator doors haven't changed in decades.

I've been in these IWK Hospital elevators numerous times before...most notably during the spring/summer of 1983, the fall of 1988 and the spring of 1990.

eww at that buzz, nice old elevator though kids reminds me of the old otis elevator at Toronto Sick Kids Roy C Hill wing

@g4tech Yeah, hospitals can have some interesting elevators. Touch sensitive Otis ones seem to be common in older hospitals.

@myotismon767 Trillium hospital in Missisauga has some pretty bad ones also with a annoying tone/buzz when you press the button

Nice elevators, and very fast.

[mrceleb2006]

@CaptainElevator42189 I agree. BTW, I first visited the IWK Health Centre back around 1979.

[CaptainElevator42189]

Interesting.

@McBearPEI I wanted to get the ones at the QEll but I ran out of time. Those are Northern models. And they are quite fast too.
