I honestly had no idea what these were. I thought they were modded at first. I first thought that TK modded this because of the MAD BS Classic Call Panels, but the EPCO/Innovation Lanterns screamed strange 3rd Party mod. Turns out, they are still original Dover Traditionals, so I fell for the "Don't let the Call Buttons fool you". So that's one bamboozle.

After that, I thought these would be Hydraulic, but turns out they are Traction! So, two bamboozles in a row.

For Traditionally Borings, these are pretty awesome! These have Arrows on the Indicator, but despite that, these are not Traflomatic controlled, they are Composite (Computamatic) controlled. You can tell by the blinking numbers and the Dover Chirp. These are pretty fast and run great! They all have Port Hole Windows, so they are slightly scenic! Some floors still have Dover Bells mixed in with the newer Generic EPCO/PTL chimes as well, so thats pretty cursed.

Probably the best Traditionals out of the Traditionally Boring Era of the 1980's I've ever been on! Definitely come check these out!
