I was going to say when I saw this... Where is the couch, tv, and 2 beds? I could live on that elevator.
Yeah ik
nice to ride the freight with permission and that is how it should be done
Yeah
This thing is a BEHEMOTH!!! I think a mobile home could fit in this elevator! This might be the largest elevator on CZcams!!
JoshCraver9000 I've seen much larger
Ikr!
Clinton Township Lifts by MagicalLift256 oh wow 🤩that must be pretty huge
00000
That thing is huge, the red light and beeping reminds me of that scene in Aliens when Ripley flushes the alien out the airlock in the cargo bay.
You finally made it public again
Please respond i think im only here you are the only hope here...
I was in that museum yesterday lol
9:21 Now watch this huge door again...
BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP...
*_BEEP_*
Like some said, it looks big enough to house an apartment in it, ceiling looks to be 2 stories tall too so maybe even a small house! Really cool
Great that your videos are being recognized on this level
Interesting how on 4 and 5, the doors are only half-height. BTW, how do you get permission to ride these things?
00000000000⁰⁰
Wait until I have a private video of the freighter at the Raleigh Science Museum.
wowers that elevator is insanely HUGE. counterweight is an anvil. what is the clicking as the elevator ascends?
Yes, this is a very professionally-produced video. Good work, DD :-)
You are the best persons to get interesting elevator and got permission.
otiselevator9439 I ask for permission to film the Elevators in my hotel especially when I become afraid to film them
The music was sadly muted.
Wow I was in that building last year thanks for getting the elevator for me.
Great to see you got in that one elevator that caught our eyes on my trip down there a few years ago :)
Hey, mood music! You're videos are getting fancy, DD :-)
I remember this, we came to DC over the week of 7/4/17
I fell in love with this video.
Thanks so much!
The passenger elevators used to have square touch sensitive buttons. :-(
I can fit my traverse in there lol
Wow, Impressive elevator! I've never seen them that huge. Is it custom made? Interessting that it is an traction elevator, one would expect a hydraulic system for an elevator like this.
No it is not custom made some elevators can even get bigger
what? no motor room? :P
I've been there before I love that place!
Elevator 4:46
Do they use it as a chill out area?
My god this is the hugest by far elevator I have ever seen its the size of two bedrooms
This thing could practically hold a normal sized passenger elevator in it lol
that elevator looks likeit can double as a bedroom
Great video Andrew!! The intro was also great!! I hope to return to DC again because I love that city!
The PEELEE gate and regular doors look lost.
Is there actually a 3rd retiring cam? The main level door appears to be slightly smaller than the full-height ones.
This is awesome! Great music choice too :)
I saw the unlocked service elevator that was the only one that goes on the rides
Cool
I've seen buildings here in NY that have freighters like this one, in buildings where instead of a ground level loading dock, they have 1 or more freighters used to bring trucks to underground loading docks.
This has got to be your best freighter video yet! IMO at least. I loved the video and the small museum tour at the beginning. A BIG THANK YOU to the Smithsonian for inviting you up there, dieselducy! Keep up the awesome work!
I estimate it being the same size as a full bathroom in a house; also I bet that loud beeping noise whenever those gate doors moved can get somewhat irritating after a while,but I suppose that it's a necessary evil for safety reasons.
When are you going to film the larger freight elevator?
National Museum Of American History Otis Traction Freight Elevator HUGE Peelle Doors
yep.
5:54 If you look on the right side of the screen, you can see that the indicator forgets its math
Y
Maybe there is a glare
Or maybe its dead
What's that song that was playing while you were walking through the museum
Oh no! This elevator is alarmed
Those guys said that there was a bigger one than this...Did you get to ride that one as well?
5:28 did that guy the left catch you for riding the FREIGHT elevator not the passenger one
Was it just me but if you listened to the door closing it sounds like a sci-Fi theme
You could probably fit an entire CAR in that. Maybe even a Maybach, those things are really long.
What's with the sad music???? XD
Btw I have a CZcams channel about elevators and trains
You should start adding special effects to your videos.
Holy shit! That things bigger than my house!
Didn't you film the passenger elevators
I rode a freight elevator at oak ridge mall today but it wasn’t nearly that size not even haft of it. Today was like the second time in my life I’ve roden one of them before. There super fascinating to ride and I hope to ride more bigger ones like this to! I love elevators and I had a even bigger obsession when I was a little kid 😆.
This one was HUGE! what kind was the one you rode?
@@DieselDucy it was a peele door one 😀
Just imagine the shaft
it is HUGE>
very cool
*Why* is there no music?
This is the east freight elevator
I like trains
I loved peering down the shaft of this beast.
@NationalElevator [ARCHIVED]
I know you probably won’t respond, but why won’t you record videos anymore? 😢😢
Where did you get the very nice FM music?
What happened to the sound?
im a big fan
Does anybody know the weight capacity of this elevator? I couldn't make out any signage on the video.
He said it in the vid. 24,000 pounds.
Imagine if the elevater got stuck you would have to live there and wait until the rescue people got there
You would have alot of room!
Will be doing the air and space once knowing a lot about aviation I can relate to it
What's that song at 2:50??? Please answer its amazing!
you could have a full bedroom in it
cool
It seems like it has 3:1 roping or even more there is no way even 2:1 can move this huge elevator
Possibly.
Imagine being stuck in that elevator
What, no epic motor?
Imagine if this huge doors were telco two speed
That would be epic.
4:03 is that daft punk?
Yes, but I never rode that elevator.
7:44... Steve should've wore a belt
Where is the other one @ 10:00???
It's huge...
i remember my first freigt elevator ride as a kid
That elevator is bigger than my apartment
it is lol.
What happens to the sound at 1:00 to 5:00
Ikr
Andrew, how did you pull this off? Very Impressive! Sad to see the Otis Fixtures gone. These two beasts are fun to ride. When I wanted to ride these when I was volunteering back in 1997-1999; I had to check a key out from security and put it in a lock that said G (motor generator). Without a key, it wouldn't run. Those things were kept off.
Skip to 4:45 to see the elevator
That is the biggest freight elevator in the world!!
You could fit a car
Sad that the Smithsonian is closed right now.
Bigger than a house
bigger than mine lol
What has been the hardest elevator to actually get to ride and film?
WV Wildlife Cam Marriott NYC Marquis
Why there is metal detectors at the start
Security, think of TSA
Okay?
There is security everywhere in Washington D.C.
all of the smithsonian museums have them, because they're national landmarks
Too bad u didn't get the machine room for that elevator. I wanted to see how big it was.
That is HUGE!
ive been there before it was awesome i didn't ride any elevators though because im afraid of them
Before the Shutdown
This lift is probably traction FRIRND
Too slow for a traction
@@seanjuth The roping is very likely 2:1 whereby compensating sheave are attached to the top of the cab and counterweight, allowing more weight to be carried but slows the FPM to about 1/2 normal speed. The geared traction machine probably has a 60-72" driven sheave
@@TheTheo58 you can hear the hydraulic motor anyway so we know it's a hydraulic
7:44
The elevator needs at least 600 horse power to move it probably
I thought that woman was a Mannequin at first
how much more & many pounds of people can this hold
like 40k i believe?
Sadly this elevator has been modernised
very slow for a traction
Michael Walters Elevators, Roblox, and More IKR They should just might as well make it hydraulic!
This fright elevator likely has a 2:1 roping which enables more weight to be carried in addition to a larger geared traction machine. There are compensating sheaves on top of the cab and counterweight unlike with 1:1 roping where the free ends of the cab anchor to the cab and counterweight pass over the driven sheave. The 2:1 free ends are anchored to the ceiling of the elevator shaft.
That is so slow...
4:45 thank me later
A 24,000 lbs wonder.
this was epic!
Whos in 2024?😢
Im here.
@@DieselDucy nice i was watching you for over 5 years!
@@DieselDucy AND I DIDNT EXPECT YOU TO BE HERE😳
