Daily Telegraph: 150 fascinating Tube facts
In message , at 14:03:57 on
Thu, 10 Jan 2013, David Walters remarked: I've always understood that every station with "only" lifts also has emergency stairs (that may not be well signposted for regular use). And also some stations still have the stairs despite now being fitted with escalators (TCR springs to mind). I think that is true but some stations have escalators and no fixed stairs, assuming everything is working. The stairs at Angel still seem to be present but I think I'd cause a disturbance if I exited the platforms that way. I presume those would exit via the original entrance, which is some way round the corner from the present one. If you have a desire to avoid lifts and escalators then a lot of the underground is off limits and it is very hard to plan a route with available information. "Stairs only" is an unusual requirement, but I agree that information to deliver it is hard to find. -- Roland Perry |
