EPIC DINNER BELL! Westinghouse Hydraulic Elevator at Hutchings-Sealy in Downtown Galveston, TX.
Filmed on August 3, 2019: Now that I'm OFFICIALLY on the start of my Christmas break, let's upload this EPIC piece of beauty!!!!!! :D This elevator is beyond awesome! Despite that I've heard Westinghouse elevators from the 80's were terrible, this elevator is still a joyful gem! I LOVE that mechanical bell chime! One of the LOUDEST bell chimes I've ever heard. Interesting that the whole elevator cab is painted green except for the glass windows. The view into the historic atrium is amazing too, despite the renovations going on. One thing I'll say, Galveston is a very friendly city of filming at least for most of the time I was there last summer (see the lady who got on with me at end of this video and also the lobby tour with security in the Shearn Moody Plaza Building). Anyways, with that said, enjoy! :D Installed in 1986.

I rode the elevator at hyatt regency in Green Bay WI, on the left there’s 2 Westinghouse elevators that doesn’t have the dinnerbell, but on the right, it does.
looks fun-
Very nice elevator!!!
I love westy's! And THAT DINNER BELL!
Epic motor :D
Great video!
Very nice elevator.
I'm surprised at 0:05, that the elevator review hasn't even started yet and your alright enjoying your visit to that elevator/building.😊 But, I wouldn't blame you at all though.😁 Westinghouse elevators are my favorite elevator brand of all time, especially with working dinner bells like that one.😁 It was loud and clear in a very good way!😁😁😁🛎🔔

I agree with you. But sadly it’s been modernized.
1:50 cue that awesome dinner bell
Hopefully this thing is protected by its building owners and they know it's a rare lift.

They don't make westinghouse elevators like this one anymore
I see you rode this one too, definitely a nice one! I actually have filmed here too, I believe it is in my 200 subscriber video. I'm glad to see this one still has the nice dinner bell too.

I also even have a much better take of this one too. By the way, Stephen, please pardon me for being too loud here as this video is a couple years old now, and I know better on how to lower my voice now.

@@JimLiElevators Glad to hear, can't wait to see it too! I, too, was a bit too loud in my past, but I've worked on that too. Glad to hear you are working to produce better content as well

@@Anatole2201 I also have some new contents as well, new contents meaning new elevators that I haven't filmed at all. Not to mention, I went to the Moody Gardens Hotel again this past spring and found that elevator which serves the convention center and parking broken again. I then came back couple months later and was finally working. Gotten better takes on not only Galveston, but also College Station as well.

@@JimLiElevators Yeah, I heard this one got slapped on with MAD fixtures not too long ago. It sucks they modded it but I can see why given the harsher conditions on an island.
A classic example of a 80s Westinghouse. Nice elevator but still prefer Montgomery from this period
Plop leveling
Nice but the paint's really tacky.
THIS THING IS MODDED NOW 😡😡
