Hong Kong's Large Escalators

It's a fascinating news piece, but one thing I noticed in the BBC's report is that the escalators themselves do not have any of the yellow safety markers that exist on UK escalators.

Well so what you might say? Well over twenty years ago my family went on holiday to Hong Kong to see some relatives who were ex pats there and during that time my four year old sister got her foot caught on one of the long running escalators there (minus the safety markers) and spent much of the rest of our holiday sitting in a pushchair. She was lucky the damage was not more serious.

A pity then that little seems to have changed in over twenty years
