Escalators usually carry more people if they are offered at least. Elevators get disgusting fast.

- bluGill 3y agoFor deep stations they don't work as well - you end up with a lot of switch backs.
- kjkjadksj 3y agoDepends but you can have very long ones, too. In koreatown LA runs one of the longest escalators in the world down into the depths. Even the escalators at Universal Studios Hollywood have only a few landings and get you down an entire mountainside of vertical drop. I’d still take a switchback over cramming into what is basically a dumpster and urinal.
