Crappy 2005 Thyssenkrupp ISIS II MRL Traction Elevator at Rae Office Building (Charlotte, NC)
Time for a "wEll oBvIOuSlY" Disclaimer:
This video has nothing to do with the actual terrorist group. I mean seriously, we should all know this by now.
The records showed a possible ISIS to ride that had yet to be discovered. My luck went out as I found another Fresh ISIS find. As of the recording of this video, this is NC's only known TRUE ISIS II elevator (True ISIS II Fixtures in question, or was) and I was really excited to find another undiscovered 1515! That excitement soon went to sheer depression...
This elevator has a lot of replacements: MAD Buttons, a Signa 4 Style ACME Indicator replacement (the actual indicator itself, not the screen cover), and replacement chimes. However, this thing sounds like dogshit and is not very smooth riding. I'm surprised it didn't run worse due to the horrible sounds it made going up and down. This has a lot new components, but no proper maintenance or care. I know ISIS's have a reputation of being bad and breaking down, but with proper TLC, they can be pretty great. I mean, look at the ISIS I found in Mooresville, it runs and sounds great to this very day. It's clear whoever is maintaining this ISIS doesn't give a shit about it besides some weird cosmetic updates. I CrI(SIS) for this ISIS.
