elevaTOUR of the Science Museum of Virginia in Richmond, VA

I don't know if they still do it, but about fifteen years ago, my cousin's cub scout group got to spend the night in the lobby of the museum around the pendulum and I was invited to join. It was really neat, but I remember I tossed and turned practically the whole night lol.

OMG! That service elevator is a chungus! And Those are some nice Dewhurst fixtures, and epic motor on the old Virginia elevator!

[@thewildeeper]

Thanks for filming these! I rode them many times growing up. The glass Otis elevators were installed around the year 2000. Prior to that, there weren't exhibits on the 2nd floor and there was just empty space where the two glass elevators are now. As a little Jeffy that Virginia service elevator was really big and intimidating, it doesn't seem quite so big now.

Glad it brought back memories :)

This is the best use of an old building.

[@jonathancreveling8699]

It's nice to see old buildings like this put to use in new ways

[@DieselDucy]

I love it

[@thefrenchelevatorchannel]

4:17 not almost every elevator in Europe has Dewhurst... actually you don't find that much Dewhurst in France or Switzerland for example.
