Awesome 1980s 4.5 m/s Express lift in Tower 42

This is the lift that I missed from my lift tour here. This is the non stop lift from Podium P to floor 42. I was amazed to find that this is an original 3rd generation Express.
The lift layout of this building is complected, there are lifts going everywhere! See my lift tour of the building.....

    As for ones with relay logic, I would love to see what a motor room would look like in a 40+ floor tower! I bet the relay panel is freaking huge for such a lot of floors, if there are even any lifts that serve that many floors that still use relay logic around.

    I was working in this building during construction in 1976, when it was just the shell. No proper lifts then, just a metal cage on a wire, pulled up to the top by a crane. Hairy experience, for sure!

    There's used to be one similar here in Thailand. Which also goes 42 floors. But it goes 2.5 or 3 m/s +2 of them are glass. But now they replaced the lifts with a 3rd generation Mitsubishi. And the glass lifts are now no longer glass.

    +Knuckles the Echidna These skyscrapers are very strict on security. To attempt to surf any of the lifts here would be totally insane. I imagine that all of the modernized lifts here have remote monitoring. Although the Express might not. I did find the service lift this time, which is in a quiet spot, but I was unable to call it. I need the Dewhurst key.
