Does anybody know why the down escalator from the concourse into the ticket
hall was shut today. At 7.30 it was hell so goodness know what it was like
later. Can they think of any other ways to really inconvenience the
passengers. May be not run any trains on Sundays, oh hang on they are doing
that anyway.

It was still out of use at 3.00pm. However, the escalator down to the
Northern Line City branch was being tested this afternoon and I was told
that it might be put into service later in the day.

The latter was in use this evening (at last). I don't know about the
former, because I went in from platform 11, but no obvious signs of
chaos.
