Here is something I heard and I am not sure if it is a myth or not.

Sloane Square was not going to have escalators, but when a local
resident found that out she said she would pay for them herself.

The Sloane Square escalators were installed in the 1935-40 New Works
Programme (and again after it was bombed just after the work was completed)
so I doubt that.
