I am very sorry for harassing you. I know that we elevator filmers are celebrating the 5th anniversary of the elevator community that we all forget that the age range of the elevator community is super wide, and many elevator filmers are in school and once you are in school you loose the luxury to film many elevators unless they are the elevators on your campus. And when you get slapped with homeowork, there goes your posting the elevators.

BTW, that light rail train you have in Austin operated by Capitol Metro, that is really an articulated, double-ended rail bus. Rail buses run on tracks just like the old streetcars did and light rail vehicles do, but rail buses ran on gasoline engines and nowdays diesel engines. Light rail vehicles and streetcars picked up their power and still do from an overhead wire.
