This one is weird, really weird. For starters there are two up buttons on the hall call button panel at the bottom and two down ones at the top (I'll try and get a shot of it next time) both buttons work and both light up when you push one. The interior fixtures are even stranger, first there are two buttons beside the "door open" button that look as though they are meant to change the elevators direction, below that is a button labeled "NS" presumably meaning "Non-Stop". Now neither of these things are uncommen older high-rise elevators but this one is TWO FLOORS! And it has a "non-stop" button?
