I see a sign has appeared at the top of the 'down' escalator

What a joke. That'll make it about six months.

Does anybody know what is wrong with it?

I *believe* that there are problems with the steps and new ones are
having to be manufactured. Once the down escalator is done don't be
surprised if a few weeks later the up escalator has to be done too.

I will know more a little later this week.

What's the reason why the new third Victoria Line escalator at King's
Cross has been more out of action than working since it was installed?
