Interesting to see they opened up LG for this lift again, that Market lift is hella efficient! I think the middle lift with a duo voice has got to be my favourite out of the 3, especially when the normal are by one voice and custom by Drucegrove! 19:34, sometimes it clunks whilst its doors start to open, when the voice is speaking, so its a little hard to hear, not too much. 19:44 Wrong Chime! The JL is in The Hayes, but it also is part of St Davids/Dewi Saint. Its kinda more between St Davids/Dewi Saint and the Train Station. That Clarks lift used to be an 80s Stannah, had a logic and button mod, but since it barely has any wall features, it is just a mod in general! The chimes are really loud, no idea why, lol! New Look in St Davids wasnt quite St Davids, it links to Queens Arcade shopping centre, which if you go that way New Look is at the end, or one of them. Especially the S Series, Ik its in Queens Arcade but why didnt you say? Matalan lifts are interesting, especially the slightly rare variant of the loud voice, has really smooth ADO, unusual for that type of ADO on a Gen2! I think that first Oakland in Next was a mod of an Express, the second one was a new add. Very unusual type of Oakland as well, especially the ADO! Whereas the other Oakland is the same normal version. I prefer the first one, especially since the funny thing is that it used to be moving, squeaky squeaky squeaky squeak, silence, then squeaks again, but it seems like theyve fixed it, kinda sad as I found that really funny, I always used to have a thought joke saying "theres a mouse in the lift shaft"! Capitol lifts have a weird call button layout, shame the right ones indicator isnt working properly, but on a positive note, it was broken last time I went so its good to see it working again! The left one has no voice, the two get close to ADO but dont have it. Didnt know there were lifts at Morrisons, didnt even notice it! Whereabouts is it in Cardiff? Seems to be that it has that Scottish Hydroware voice, lol, or I think it is. Interesting how the Left lift has ADO whereas the Right doesnt. That Premier Inn Orona looks very nice! I have pretty much done all of these lifts apart from the Museum, Morrisons and Premier Inn. Shame you missed Cardiff Central library, as they have some awesome Kone MonoSpaces, especially Cineworld with some interesting Otis 2000s! And also that Platform 0 one, for how knackered it is lol, and also Platform 8, as it has that voice that TS Stannahs do, in English and Welsh! Great video!

When I edit videos I go off what online tells me for locations JL says The Hayes that’s what gets put down. The Schindler yes I did forget to add it’s location but big videos and editing at 2am don’t go😂 The Morrisons and Premier Inn are located at Ipswich Road about 8 stops from the centre on bus 49 towards Llanrumney.

[@Morgansliftadventures]

@@TheUKTransportBloggerAh ok, sounds tiring editing videos at that time, lol! Strange thats what it says, as JL and St Davids/Dewi Saint have said theirself that it is part of it, although The Hayes connects just off Queen Street and heads down the side of St Davids, and then eventually gets to there. Also, by one of the entrances by The Hayes has some Gen2s that go to the Basement Car Parks.

[@Morgansliftadventures]

Oh also just realised now I havent done the Cardiff Market one either.

That lift with 2 voices 😂. 24:00 When replacing KONE buttons you have to press them in a specific order to program them, they clearly didn’t set it up properly. Also the motor on that lift sounds knackered judging by the clunk.

[@TheUKTransportBlogger]

I thought dual language setup but they talk over each other someone’s messed that up😂. Kone always have their own strange ways.

30:18 A bodge lift Who noticed a DMG Alarm button

[@adilhossain8198]

18:28 Dual English?!

[@TheUKTransportBlogger]

2 voices set independently and talking over each other I don’t think it’s a dual setup I think it’s a mistake dual would speak one at a time.
