They're lovely machines, and still in production I believe. Never owned any myself, but I've used countless numbers and I'm very impressed.

The one that took off on me was one of the pair the 'Row had before the rig was rebuilt with a pair of 1210s . . . which was when it was against the far wall to the left as you go in through the door, later being rebuilt again across the room to the right as you go in. A lot of change there over the years. Originally there wasn't a permanent rig or dancefloor - there were flooring sections stored under the spiral stair that were laid out on dance nights.
