Scenic Schindler 6400NA modded traction elevators at the James St Garage - AGH in Pittsburgh PA

(📹 8/13/2022) These are some Schindler 6400NA elevators at the James St Garage at the Allegheny General Hospital in Pittsburgh PA. They were modded with EPCO fixtures. The first car sounds like it has an awesome motor to it. I did not go to Floor 1 intentionally because that's the underpass to the hospital and there are employees and nurses monitoring that area, and plus the fact that HIPAA rights apply here. These are some childhood elevators of mine because I had to come here to see my grandpa who was sick at the time, being over ten years ago. Since then, nothing has changed. Unfortunately, I was not here for a good reason at all at the time of filming.
