Rl_83 I was talking with an old workmate from cinematronix regarding the projectors and you are correct one had fallen off the back of a truck and destroyed unfortunately. Very sad to hear that is how it met its end after decades of projection work.
I worked as a projectionist at the Stanley for years. They had two Philips Todd-AO projectors that could run 35/70mm affixed with Christie Lamphouses. It was a pleasure to operate those projectors. From my understanding they were crated and shipped to a warehouse in Alberta in 1991 after its closure. Sad demise for two of the greatest projectors ever made. They exhibited years of film history.
