Well one account is that they have - in parts (sic!)

"The escalators, seen here in 2008 (nine years after closure), look
in good order viewed from above (and are kept that way for the
benefit of the many film crews who use the station). The workings
underneath are entirely different: the steps have been permanently
secured and parts have been cannibalised for the repair of other
escalators."
