Looks like an escalator in Holland...
...and this one at the old Virgin Megastore in San Francisco...
...oo and there was one @ LAX...
...and the London Underground...

And my second thought: DOOOO THE TIME WARP!!

“An escalator can never break: it can only become stairs. You would never see an Escalator Temporarily Out Of Order sign, just Escalator Temporarily Stairs. Sorry for the convenience.”

Next time I'm gonna visit @JujuDeRoussie I'm making an extra long sop at Antwerp just to get you a pic of some other amazingly cool wooden escelators (if I can find em again and remembered it right LoL)

Frankly, I trust it more than most new escalators.

I like it, it has a steampunk touch. But maybe in another building.

Like @notsopeachie, I made that as Macy's Herald Square, upper floors. I've been on it, lived to tell the tale.

That looks like a death trap. "Going down, sir?"

only non-ny'ers would question this escalator.
you city newbs.
your all so sad.
yes we touch them, yes the are safe, no you should be afraid.
sigh.

erm, i would have taken the stairs....x

Please say you didn't touch that!!!

Looks like a Dr. Who contraption.

This looks like every escalator I've ever seen.

Amber you always speak the truth! They do look cool if I could use escalators those would the ones I'd try first! :-)

Is that Macy's in NYC?

You almost expect to see an old-time carny taking tickets.

I need a tetanus shot from just looking at that thing.

After that last Final Destination movie, ain't nothing wrong with taking the stairs.

Is this where escalators from the 70s go when they die?

And why would you :p
