2019 Thyssenkrupp Evolution 200 Traction Elevators at Grand Strand Med Offices (Myrtle Beach, SC)

TK's Evolution Model is a model that I wasn't expecting to find for a very long time, until now! These are MY FIRST Thyssenkrupp Evolutions, which is their Belt Driven MRL Traction Models and we got a set of 3! I could immediately tell that this was Evolution Model due to how it runs, it's very weird feeling and one of the most distinct riding qualities I've ever seen in a Traction model. From what I was able to find, this place was built in 2019. This was likely one of the first few Evolutions to ever be installed in the area, but it's too bad they went with MAD BS instead of Signa4/MAD Atoll though.

Minor nitpick aside, these run perfectly fine. It's weird at first, but I think you get used to it. Pretty cool and unexpected finds! I can now say I have been on a TKE Evolution!
