It will be exciting to some people in the Town of Gander, Newfoundland, and considered nuts to those everywhere else, especially in cities.

2/ We are restoring our airport’s international lounge and hope to bring old things back to life. One of those things is the airport’s famed #escalator, which has the #midmodernist motif of the room. The escalator was installed by J&E Hall Ltd. Of Dartford, England in 1958..
3/ There are almost 7,900 hours on the unit. The escalator carried millions of passengers from across the world, many admittedly staunch opponents of Leg Day.
The escalator was taken out of service officially – de-escalated, as it were - in December of 2004.
