WORST Elevator I've Ever Seen - Montgomery Hydraulic Elevator - Watt/I-80 Station - Sacramento, CA

[Recorded 11-7-20] Ladies and gentlemen...I present to you the WORST elevator I've ever been on throughout my 9 years of filming elevators. I don't even know where to START with this piece of junk. Let me actually start off by describing the actual place. I was only here for about 10 minutes. Within that time frame, I saw two homeless people take a piss (one of which can be seen in the video), pigeons crap, and crackheads lighting it up at the bus stop. The amount of sketchiness that this station gives off is insane. I mean, look how freakin DIRTY everything is!! I highly doubt it's been cleaned since the pandemic started, which is very concerning. As for the one elevator that was actually working...that's a whole separate world. For a while, the Church St Muni Station elevator held the record for the worst elevator I've been on, but this one has surpassed that by afar. Let me elaborate in detail. The elevator reeked of piss. That's because the entire floor was covered in half an inch of it. Yummy. There was graffiti EVERYWHERE. The fixtures are all sticky. The lights have been smashed, along with EVERY SINGLE WINDOW. The elevator runs like it looks...like crap! The doors sound wonderful too. Yeah...this thing is absolutely disgusting. This is the only transit station in Sacramento with elevators, and I guess that's a good thing. Judging by how these are maintained, I don't think they'd be able to handle more. Enjoy the video (or not).

Put this thing at a random station in Chicago, and you now have the WORST elevator in Chicago!

[@SWFLElevators]

Oh yeah, I remember that elevator! Now, put this thing at the MOSI Pedestrian Walkway in Tampa. Now, you have possibly the WORST elevator in Tampa! Watch this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/forOk6V3nLiki7s Filmed by ElementElevators

NW Indiana Elevators this is bad for a train station MAN I AM NOT COMING HERE EVER

[@Skivator]

I think the fact this is Montgomery quality and they have the slogan “Montgomery Dependable Elevators” is the only reason this thing works lol

[@TransitUSA]

This is the worst “elevator” I’ve ever seen on my 6 active years and 7 total years on youtube. Disgusting. I’m surprised you ride it more than once.

[@livionaves]

Damn this is... beyond words. Gotta love that it was so bad that Justin ended up sounding like Beno, hahaha. I wouldn't even dare to film something like this if I had the opportunity.

[@KimiFan2002]

Can’t be like BENO, he’s not abducting kids to take them on top of lifts😳😂😂

[@TheElevatorandAirplaneFinder]

Imagine if someone got stuck in it...

[@BCsVators]

Now this is a whole new level of bad elevators like this.......

[@guitarplayerforu]

The whole place looks scary and creepy, I felt really uneasy just watching this video, so can't imagine how you must have felt Justin.

[@Jamestube8439]

That’s it. This is the worst elevator I’ve ever seen wow

[@NWIndianaElevators]

If I saw that elevator in person, I would be like, "Fuck no, I am not riding on that shit!"

[@TXMNElevators]

I've seen some pretty bad elevators but I think this is worse than anything I've ever seen. At least it has CJA, if it had something like Adams or GAL the buttons would be falling apart too.

Imagine a US in here lmaoo

[@TXMNElevators]

@@Skivator That JUST MIGHT not hold up

[@elevatingnc32]

Oh. My. God. This definitely takes the cake for the worst elevator that I have ever seen on KZbin, but I’m glad it got modernized. Also, you’re not the only one who has dealt with homeless people before.

[@breannamaiden9970]

this is sacramento for you

[@adastrapgh]

Dang, I didn’t think elevators could get any worse after watching your Church St. station video, but boy, was I wrong

[@MilwaukeeCountyElevators]

Oh Damn! That thing is SUPER GROSS and vandalized! It could be even worst than some gross transit elevators that are in Chicago.

[@michaelwalterselevatorsrob5009]

honestly I thought this was gonna be A LOT worse, I mean the elevator itself is a dumpster but it runs pretty decently BUT HOW THE HELL DID IT PASS INSPECTION?

[@VoAviation]

I think it was inspected before people made it hell. I don't live in US or Canada so I don't know

[@ProspectElevators]

This is not Super Montgomery This is Super Duper Montgomery

Michelle Carlin I'm 100% agree with you on your comment

[@gdkid]

[@That_randomkid2]

That's a portable bathroom 🚻. Look at all the vandalism on this elevator.

[@Photoelectric_Elevators]

can’t wait for december

[@norhashimahmdsaid579]

That elevator needs to be heavily modernized again since its vandalized and needs a good cleaning

[@Dana_Danarosana]

I can actually smell that through my laptop.

[@CenTexElevators489]

Did this elevator get modernized? If so, did you get any of the CJA fixtures, or were they too gross to handle?

[@Jowevator3219]

Yes it has been completely replaced. I didn’t get any parts, but not like I wanted them anyway lol

[@MTBTYLERINITTT]

Why does this look so much like VR

[@davvonmckenzie3911]

that elevator needs repairs and serious cleaning... ....and also people need to use the bathroom instead of taking a whizz all around the station (which needs plenty of cleaning)

The ONLY transit station with elevators in Sacramento? C'mon, Sacramento, you can do better than this piece of junk!

[@danieldelmonte9029]

Can you please film the other elevator because it is not caged up.

[@Ih8kone]

You should log a complaint with the transit agency. Public urination is illegal. Those two people that you saw should have been arrested.

[@Jowevator3219]

That would be a waste of time because they could not care less about that.

[@Ih8kone]

@@Jowevator3219 Oh yes they would. I have reported such behavior to transit police, and it resulted in the perpetrator facing serious jail time.

[@Jowevator3219]

Nope. My transit agency does not give a damn

[@CARecreationalgaming]

Yeah it has the motor But its a mont

[@danieldelmonte9029]

Its a shame that the people who are getting off the bus will have to walk all the way to cross the street to get to this hellevator or suffer taking the stairs because the hellevator that you did not film does not work. But i doubt that elevator mechanics are going to fix the hellevator you were on. These hellevators are definitely something people don't want to be on but thanks for a awesome video. But these are seriously useless.

[@Bombiedude.]

To be honest this looks like it belongs in a dump or something

[@ethancampbell6076]

They should mod it how ever if the have enough money to do it.
