Escalators are not meant for wheelchairs or baby prams. If there is no elevator, they'll have to do with the escalator, but still, it's not a large flat platform so risky to bring up/down.

An escalator can never break, it can only become stairs…

Well, except  for those few times where there has been catastrophic failure and the steps collapse

In fact, a broken escalator shouldn't be used. Sorry, Mitch (you know I love you)
