Outdated information?
I was just at this station last night, and no elevator operators were present. Either they've been removed or are only present certain times of day. Either way, the line on the operators needs clarification and possible further references if the MTA or the media have any available - I noticed the cited article is from 4 years ago. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fishmech (talk • contribs) 01:17, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

Claim of double-deck elevators
"There is evidence of manually-operated double-deck elevators..." The station never had double-deck elevators. I've explored this station, and there is no way that double-deck elevators would have been compatible with the top level of the station. I realize this statement was taken from the nycsubway website, but that too is mistaken. This 1907 article describes the 181st station elevators in detail, including a diagram, and surely a double-deck elevator would have been something the article would have mentioned. The article uses the word "duplex" in describing the elevators, but this refers to two motors at the top of each shaft, not two passenger compartments. Canadian2006 (talk) 23:00, 5 December 2018 (UTC)
