As I promised, this is a MUCH NEEDED RETAKE in 4K 60FPS of these wonderful Early North American Kone Traction Elevators, with its reliable equipment that was used from Montgomery Elevators (Later continued by Montgomery Kone in 1994, then Kone U.S. in 2000). Also can’t forget the RARE bilingual voice announcements too!
This is at Houston George Bush Intercontinental Airport Terminal C.
This terminal opened in 1981, and originally had some vintage Montgomery Elevators until 2001, when Kone did a complete replacement of these elevators for the parking garage that was built and expanded in this terminal.
I actually may be wrong about the model of these elevators. Since these elevators are Bottom Drive Traction, According to a wayback machine archive of the Kone website in 2000, The part where it says “Basement Traction Elevators” does not say anything about Series 90. It’s just called “Basement Traction Elevators”.
I don’t know if these are AC or DC powered, but I do know that these are definitely geared traction.
Because of the innovation bruiser fixtures as well as the later brailles that these COPs have, I might have a feeling that these elevators may have received a slap-on-mod by MCE that has been completed with in I believe between 2010-2012. Other than that, everything else is still original.
Installed in 2001, partially modernized (w/ Innovation Bruiser Fixtures) by MCE in between 2010-2012.

The Purple Garage (Existing) is currently in the process of being expanded to accommodate 2 additional parking floors on top of the existing garage, which means the original elevators will end up being replaced by something that will unfortunately last very long. I have unfortunately not been able to do a 4K Retake of those elevators, sadly. R.I.P. Montgomery Traction Elevators (Purple Garage). (80’s/90’s)-2023. :’(.
