Moving StairwaYs.

The advantages of moving stair
ways include the following: (a) There
is no waiting. (b) The service is con-
tinuous throughout traffic hours.
tc) Passengers are carried practically
to the point of their destination, and
the necessity for long connecting pas
sageways is thus avoided (d) Nov
ing stairways can deliver the same
number of people for a short or long
rise, whereas with lifts the capacity
is dependent on the number of lifts
and the depths of the shafts. (e) In
case of breakdown passengers can
walk up a moving stairway as up an
ordinary staircase.
