The before and after eggs were all the jury needed to see.

Mike/Wayne: Thanks for your comments. It's odd how we do this work day-in-and-day-out, without ever explaining the nuts and bolts to folks. I hope somebody benefits from the discussion. Regards, - Ward

Thanks for the link to the EESF. Promotin safety is our foremost goal, that is why we're advocating the installation of a newer, safer escalator.

Zack:

Yes, all of the news coverage on this topic indicates that this escalator did not have an emergency shut-off mechanism triggered by a sensor which can detect when something (like a jacket) is sucked into the machinery.

That is what I mean by a safer escalator.
