- Grazester 7y agoGiven the fact that nearly every single subway station has about 5 escalators I am not surprised there will be breaking from constant use. In fact I found then quite reliable compare to my old college's elevators that saw less than half the use.
- yellowapple 7y agoSame with BART in the SF Bay Area. When the escalators are working, they're usually working the wrong way (i.e. the only escalator is going down instead of up, making that escalator effectively useless except as a fitness machine).
