As vaguely stated in the description, the fact the other elevator served the basement, while this one didn't, completely threw my game off. This was the 1'st set I've encountered with a weird setup like that. Months later, I found a similar set in another hospital, bit didn't get thrown off that time. It'll be awhile before that set is shown.
Wonderful elevators they have the same floor counter, directional arrows and capacity as the main Thyssen Elevators at Leominster Hospital, but with the Dover chimes.
This was actually modernized by Thysen. This was a Westinghouse from before, and the modernized by Payne in the the 1960's.

Could be. Then again Thyssen owned Payne, so Payne modded these, under Thyssen's arm. This was commonplace in the final years of Payne.

I don't think those are PTL. They are very nice elevators, and they look like a nice mod. I like that floor passing chime a lot.

Interesting. I've only heard that floor passing chime once, and it was used on a 29-story elevator modded by Northern. It was ANNOYING.

The phone says "Help"...I wonder if people would use that button if they need help on how to use the elevator, lol.

If they do use it for help on using the elevator, THEY need help, if you get what I'm saying. :)

Nice elevators, and I think these were modernized by ThyssenKrupp/Northern Elevator.

ThyssenKrupp did but Payne Elevator, so this was TK's crap, Payne's install.

Yes, it's one of those aftermarket installations.

@CaptainElevator42189 Northern is only in Canada. What confuses people thinking that it's Northern is the EPCO fixtures.
