I share this for two reasons:
1) Awesome
2) You'll notice that this is the longest/tallest escalator in (Western) Europe. This is significant because this is the station that I 'alight' for work; Angel Station. Why is that significant? Well, because the damn thing breaks down at least once a week and I get the pleasure of walking up the 9+ stories of stairs.
