It depend what you mean. It was running fine just 25 years ago. So yes it
was running. But since then I haven't tried. Before I fire it up again I
need to give it a complete overhaul. Check PSUs etc. Just hopefully the old
Finch drive is still doing fine.

The purpose of this tape-reading is to find a method to make a copy of the
tapes without having a running system.
