My apologies; I have no idea why I didn't see these messages.

There are 4 lifts at HAW serving
platforms 1, 2&3, 4&5 & 6 respectively from an overbridge. They are
numbered 1 to 4 and have manufacturer's plates of "Cotswold Lifts Ltd".


Thanks. Information added.


Hooray! We have communication. It could be more speedy, but it exists.

I will rephrase what I had previously written. It embarasses me when I
see the error rate in my communication.

There are 2 Kones in different shafts up from the platforms at Edgware
and 2 more in different shafts down from the platforms at Golders Green.

There are 2 Otis lifts at Euston Square. They are in different shafts.
One goes from Westbound Platform 1 to Gower Street level via the ticket
hall level, but does not yet have an exit to Gower Street;
The other goes from the ticket hall to Gower Street. I saw no sequence
numbers. Each carries 11 persons/825kg. I don't know how to distinguish
OTIS models. Those lifts give an opportunity for those who want to do so
to enter or leave ESQ without crossing a barrier.
I have just phoned the LU CSC and pointed out an error on the online
step-free tube guide which refers "westbound towards Liverpool Street".

Kennington [aa] should read Kennington [oo]

I shall try to supply further information on the "?" marks.
