I’m always amazed those things work at all and don’t even usually kill people in the process.
The one that go down aren’t escalators, they’re de-escalators. Check your Prince lyrics.
Stairs go up, stairs go down. Nobody can explain that.
“It’s really important that the handrail move at the exact same speed as the steps”
I don’t think i’ve ever been on an escalator where the match is perfect.
