OK. I'll do so probably by next Monday. It will be under a different name though...so don't be surprised (if you're confused, I'll explain).

Ok.

I think I'll post the elevator pics in a new thread to avoid long loading times.

This one is self-operated... it only goes up. Unlock the wire door (every tenant has a key), open the sliding oak door, get in, close the wouter door, then the inner. Push the button for the desired floor and wait. Open both doors, close the inner one, push a button between the two doors and close the outer one. After a few seconds the light goes out, you'll hear a solid "clank" and the cab goes down to the first floor automatically. No way of going down in that thing, unless you have someonae closing the door after you (doors have to be closed in the right sequence) and don't mind going down in the dark. I LOVE that beast!

Some even had a coin slot, so visitors without a key could use it too. I don't know what happened to them after the changeover to Euro though, the last (and only) time I used one we still had the old Schilling currency. Cost 1 Schilling (roughly 10 US cents) a ride.
