RARE Schindler 400A MRL Traction Elevators at The Mining Exchange by Wyndham in Colorado Springs, CO

Filmed in October 2020.
Let the Colorado videos begin!!! And I can't think of a better way to start off with than these BEAUTIFUL & VERY RARE Schindler 400A Elevators with HT Fixtures at The Mining Exchange, a Historic 1902 Office Building that was totally gutted out and redone into a Wyndham Grand Hotel in 2012. Aside from the doors being a bit rough and squeaky, these elevators are ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL, have Very Nice Cabs, RARE Bronze HT Fixture Panels and overall run BEAUTIFULLY!!! As you guys know, finding a Schindler 400A install with the larger HT COPs is pretty rare, and with the exception being a bank of Newer Series 1s and a Series M2 Mod at another hotel, these are probably the most "boring" elevators I ran into in this town!!!
And they're not boring AT ALL!!!! With that said, if THESE VERY RARE Schindler 400As are the most boring elevators I saw in the Springs, then that means what's to come is gonna be pretty good! So stay tuned!
But for now, enjoy the video of these BEAUTIFUL 400As from 2012!
Installed in 2012. (Likely Replaced an Older Elevator as the building was built in 1902)

Very nice lifts! Especially rare to find a 400A/E with the 2010-12 panel.

BTW... Also a little fun fact; did you know that ALSO the later 500As also had the 400A chimes? Now how would I know this? Because I happened to came across a couple of Schindler 500As installed in circa 2009/'10 at my local hospital -- and they happen to have the same exact chimes as well. I've seen the installation manuals for them. Unfortunately they're service elevators that are key-carded off. The passengers are 400A though.

Wow these are epic

[@CaydenLudlow]

Nice video. The audio is a bit rough though. I hear the camera creaking a lot

[@meikl100]

woah fancy cab yes?? anyways amazing elevator and amazing vid

[@elevatorsinrussia2597]

If they are installed in 2012 then they are probably 400AE.

[@michaelwalterselevatorsrob5009]

did you get a new camera? Also 400A is more common in Canada, at least in the Toronto Area

[@FloridianElevators]

I got one for Christmas yes. It's a Sony Handycam

Epic. I forgotten that I had these in town

[@NathanDavisVideos]

I wouldn't really say 400As (or 400AEs) are actually RARE. I think it's rare because it has HT Standard (or Premium -- judging by the COP) unlike MOST Schindler 400As or 400AEs which usually have Schindler VR fixtures. Sometimes 400As ALSO have MT as well! Now those are probably EVEN MORE RARE than "HT Standard" (If I can recall correctly the "original" 400As used to have MT originally) on 400A or 400AE if they were installed at some later date.

[@FloridianElevators]

I would disagree with that, I've been on over 1000 elevators in my lifetime probably, and I've only seen like 4 of these lol

[@jamesmccrackyn4506]

@@FloridianElevators DOES THIS ELEVATOR HAVE HT BUTTONS?

[@ElevatingFlorida]

Woah, a 400A! But Little Daper Garage (Casino garage) has 400A with VR

[@NathanDavisVideos]

Yeah but 400A with VR is not AS RARE as 400As with HT Standard.
