Atlantic City follow-up verdict: July 10

It is now July 15, 2018 & we still do not have a single clue about when we are going to Atlantic City or anywhere else in CCRS which ranks above Secaucus. Due to the unfortunate circumstances of uncertainty, I am going to have to continue writing follow-up journal/book posts practically every few days until August (hopefully not). Once reservations go through, I will then be able to provide you with accurate insight of us going to Atlantic City, Hartford, or Pittsburgh.

Do not expect us to go to THESE CITIES:

As of right now, we are not going to any of the following proposed cities on CCRS for this summer:

  • Atlanta
  • Fort Lauderdale
  • LA

In the meantime, once September hits, I will be working on a CCRS graduation trip project where I do research on the top 5 most basic lifts in each & every city on CCRS. I expect to have a lot of fun doing this project, as I will mostly be using Google Docs to complete the project & Google Slides to present my findings on the journal & book.
As of right now, there is a solid 50/50 chance that we might be going to Atlantic City, a 25% chance we might be going to Hartford instead, or a 25% chance of going to Pittsburgh.

Last resorts

  • If we do not go to Atlantic City, Hartford, or Pittsburgh at any time during the month of August or July, then during the last two weeks of summer recess before school reopens, I will try to make it to Secaucus twice (2x Secaucus = 1x Atlantic City), or Elizabeth THREE TIMES (3x Elizabeth = 1x Atlantic City).
  • That’s all for today, expect another follow-up verdict on Friday, along with some of the possible TYPES of lifts I could ride & film if I am able to go to Atlantic City at any time before my high school graduation trip next summer!

Why Schindler & KONE make the best traction lifts

Over the past 2 & a half years of filming lifts at different buildings all over the Eastern Seaboard, I have managed to film a handful of OTIS, Schindler, ThyssenKrupp & KONE traction lifts. Here is my assumption: Schindler & KONE make the best traction & MRL traction lifts of any of the 4 major lift brands. Of course, this could be based on personal bias, but it doesn’t go without knowledge that Schindler lifts, are in fact, more efficient time-based than let’s say, ThyssenKrupp lifts. Here are some things that I really love about Schindler & KONE traction lifts. Their fast acceleration / leveling It is no surprise that Schindler & KONE have some of the fastest average accelerating rates of any major lift brand. This is because Schindler & KONE have a perfect reference-tackle system, which is almost unbeatable by standards of other lift brands. One thing I have noticed when riding Schindler lifts is even at low speeds (200-400 FPM), you head feels like...

A QUICK ANALYSIS OF EACH OF THE LIFTS AT BRIDGEWATER MALL IN BRIDGEWATER TOWNSHIP

I do not have much time to elaborate on every single detail of the lifts at the Bridgewater Mall in Bridgewater Township, so I will try to narrow down my analyses as quick as possible. I have no time to include pictures as visuals either, so you’ll just have to refer to the attached YouTube video below. The Mall itself Bridgewater Commons Mall is a mall from the early 1980’s that has gone through quite a few renovations and expansions over the years. Inside the mall, the original anchors are Macy’s and Bloomingdales, which both have Westinghouse lifts, still fully original to the 1980’s construction project. The carpark was added in during the 1990’s and features the first lift I filmed which was the Dover glass hydraulic. Inside the mall, there is a food court on the third floor with three sets of escalators throughout the main part of the mall, with three more sets inside the multi-level stores (Bloomingdales, Macy’s, and Lord & Taylor). The majority of the escalators are Schin...

Paramus Lift Galore: June 2022

Written on behalf of the Rising Salamander Academy Lift Galore Date: June 17 Lift Galore Time: 5:00 PM EST It's been a long time since I've last filmed lifts in person, a whole whopping half a year to be exact. I'm excited to be back, but not for long, since I have to finish up my time at Kean University & focus on graduating on time. But for the mean time, let's enjoy our summer recess, film the best lifts we can film & make the most of it! Westinghouse Lift Where: Macy's, Garden State Plaza Time Filmed: 10:10 AM (June 10) Grade: B+ Speed to Height Ratio: 8.1:1 (Fast) Landings Served: 3 The first lift of this lift galore is a 1950's Westinghouse lift which was later modernised by a generic company between the 1980's & early 2000's with EPCO Flushline fixtures on the outside, EPCO Circleline fixtures on the inside. This lift has a speed to height ratio of 8.1:1 which makes it fast for the application & number of landings. This lift is loc...
