Yep, these are getting modded slowly... BOOOOOOOOOOOO!

These are some High Rise Dovers with Traditional and EPCO Bar Buttons, CE Indicators, and Custom Old School Style Lanterns! Sadly, these are slowly getting modded by Thyssenkrupp for literally no reason besides a newly going "tRafLOmAtIc oBsOlETe" garbage excuse by the looks of it.

I rode one modded and one original on each set. The original elevators run well and are holding up great, so this mod is literally pointless. How about the modded ones?

To give credit, at least TK is re-using the old lanterns and keeping the cabs, but the interior fixtures is just the lame MAD stuff you are use to seeing. The Modded Low Rise seems to run fine, but the Modded High Rise one runs like crap already. Ever heard the phrase "If it ain't broke, don't fix it"; well I guess they didn't because the high rise ones are pretty much downgraded by the looks of it. Not very happy about this mod. That being said, if you want to see these one last time fully original, GET DOWN HERE FAST! I'll give it one more year before these are fully modded, and make sure you get the other elevators here as well, as they may be on the chopping block as well.
