My name is Liam McAtee. I am an elevator enthusiast based in the Metro Indianapolis area. I film elevators in the Metro Indianapolis area, as well as surrounding areas. I also make escalator videos, Roblox elevator videos, abandoned place videos, train videos, community posts on high school football games, movies, shows, meetups with other elevator people, among other things. I am also an actor, filmmaker, and editor. If you want to do a meetup with me, feel free to text me on Facebook Messenger, Instagram, Snapchat, or Discord. Make sure to drop a like, leave a comment, and subscribe and turn on that bell.

This is definitely a neat one Liam! I like it! The motor is very nice and it is VERY fast, especially going down! I was shocked at how fast it took to go down on the very first trip‼️ The signs are definitely a bit extra 😂. Nice to see it still has a bumper and interesting that it doesn’t have a door close button too. This is the first one of these I remember seeing without a door close button. That sign on the elevator door made this thing sound as old as a grandpa 😂😂😂😂. However, the indicator is completely is completely burned out. Other than that, great find Liam! What film were ya’ll working on here?
A lot of older elevators in general don’t have a “door close” button, though the “door close” button started to pop up in more elevators throughout the 80s. The film we were working on is called “The Influencer”, a short film made for the 48 Hour Film Project. The 48 Hour Film Project is an annual film competition in which teams of filmmakers are assigned a genre, a character, a prop, and a line of dialogue, and have 48 hours to create a short film containing those elements. The competition has been active since 2001. In the weeks after the 48 hours of filmmaking are complete, screenings are held in each city and a winner is chosen to represent that city at Filmapalooza - a festival that features "best of" screenings of the winners from each city. Filmapalooza is hosted by a different city each year. The most recent Filmapalooza, in 2023, was held in Los Angeles.
When I initially saw the door frame, I immediately said it was a Schindler 😭. The door frame is EXACTLY like a 330A, with the exception of the lantern being at the top of the door frame. This is only the third one of these I’ve seen‼️ Out of the other two I saw from Sirens and Elevators and STL Elevators, this is probably the oldest one because of the indicator. It runs decently and is relatively fast! The door is definitely a bit slow tho. Other than that, this is a great install Kone! Keep it up!

That motor is something else‼️ AWESOME elevator indeed Liam! It is very nice and it runs very well! I love the fixtures! The call buttons are interesting too! I’ve never seen those on one of these vintage elevators before. I believe I’ve seen one or two of these Applegate elevators before, but it’s for surely been a while! I filmed a vintage Jolley from the 60s with Epco Flushline 5 years ago! Awesome how you did a twilight ride too! I LOVE intro as well‼️ Good job with it! The outro is nice too❗️ Did you see my new video?
The motor is on the quieter side, but it’s still nice. The call stations look like ThyssenKrupp Aurora, which, it’s interesting to see those replace the old call stations. And about that Jolley with EPCO FlushLine, awesome! I filmed an AMCO also from the 60s that also has EPCO FlushLine back in September 2022! About me doing a “twilight” ride, when I saw the light switch, I thought why not lol. About the intro, thanks! And yes, I did see your new video. On a side note, nice to see you commenting here again, Nick! It sure has been a while!
@@ElevatorDude I know! I haven’t commented here for a few years! I saw this video and just had to watch it because why not! So here I am again! When I heard the motor, it sounded like metal to metal contact, or at least similar to it. It is actually on the quieter side, but I was grooving the sound it makes because it sounds like something spooky I want to say! That Jolley was awesome! Can’t believe it’s been 5 years since I filmed it! We have those all over the area because they were one of our local third party companies. They were bought out a long time ago by some company, maybe Kone, but I’m not sure. Most of their elevators have the small Armor buttons with rare few exceptions like the one I filmed. I actually filmed a modded one last Thursday which entered service at the very end of April, but I can’t post it until next year because it is at my high school. I’ll be a senior this coming year, so I won’t be able to post that one and the other two elevators at my school until I graduate. If you remember me sending them to you through snap a couple years ago and early last year, then you already know what they are! As for the call stations on this one, they do look like TK Aurora, but aren’t exactly the same. Definitely glad you took the opportunity to do the twilight ride! It’s only very occasional that you see these vintage elevators with those old light and fan switches. How have you been Liam? Also, you’re welcome for the intro as well.
@@nickelevatorfan4243 Good, how have you been? And BTW, I looked through our saved snaps, and I found the clips of the Montgomery KONE at your school that you sent me, but I can’t find the modded one.
@@ElevatorDude that’s good Liam, I’ve been good too. I never sent you the modded one yet. It’s the same elevator as the original Jolley that I did send you. However, I did send you the new elevator’s call button when I asked you what kind it was.
