Unique and Rough Vintage Otis Traction Elevators - DC E.H. Little Library (Davidson, NC)

These are some pretty neat Otis Lexan Tracts with Roto Dials. Unfortunately, the roto dials don't work on any floors. Even worse, they run very poorly with rough jolts and stops. The 2nd one in particular is really beaten up. These were probably a lot cooler back in the day.

This is the last video from this college. Every other elevator here was not worth filming/out of reach. All Bathrooms here sucked, with a majority of them being replacements or newer.
