I can't help thinking that the escalators would get more people up and

always some idiot tourist who can't read who blocks it anyway). I
realise it might inconvenience people in a hurry but I reckon the pros
would outweight the cons.

Opinions?

They should stop the escalators completly in rush hour -- people would
walk on both sides. It would speed things up and make people healthier
(and thinner, meaning more room on the trains in the long run)
