Kone EcoDisc brake imitation! Schindler 5500 MRL Traction elevator 1 at DFO Homebush, NSW

Recorded on January 31, 2024
I know this is not a Kone MonoSpace, but it's obviously a 5500. I'm not saying it IS a true Kone, but the brake clunks sound like it. Anyway, this is my first time filming an earlier 5500 as most ones I find are newer and have Linea 300 panels; only difference is the build quality is not the best but it's okay since this is quite old and not as improved. This time I'm actually glad I got it all to myself as I went when it wasn't busy at all but kind of silent, as it's more better to get a video off of the lifts here than having it super busy. Oh well, it's at least better than not filming a lift. The brakes have worn down quite a lot, meaning these sound like Kone MX series EcoDisc motors when they obviously aren't! I find it funny since the motor on these are smaller and slimmer than EcoDiscs. Not too bad for a lift, as this is similar to Westfield Miranda, but these have white and not the ice black design.
