    Thanks for returning to Macy's to showcase the wooden escalators once again. Their sound is unmistakable and this is the perfect time for remembering past holiday seasons.

    It's really unique, i saw a wooden partanosta but never an escalator made of wood. Hopefully it will last another 100 years 😎

    These escalators are real strong, they’ve been holding up all these years and have literally seen all walks of life.

    Awesome! In my city we still have a city street that's made from wooden blocks from probably over 100 years ago! Cool to see this stuff survive!

    I haven't seen wooden escalators since using some of the older Tube stations that had them in London, they're all gone now since the fire at King's Cross station in 1987. Fun to see these still in use at Macy's. Thanks for showing the Xmas decorations too!

    The modern escalator at the end really looks so dull, and devoid of character, in comparison.

    Just amazing AK that they are still using these. They look very nicely maintained and I like having things of the past that are still used today. Thanks!

    Ak, this is very helpful because I saw some teenagers once trying to slide on the handrail or get down on up side and that's dangerous. Thank you!

    Macy's is a pretty big department store. It has so many floors on it. Those wooden escalators are very neat. I wonder how they maintain those, given that the steps are largely made of wood? As I like shopping, that would be a good place to go to, as they have a lot of different things. Cheers! ✌️I❤️ NY

    hi AK :) so fascinating to see these are so well preserved by macy's and in wonderful working order! i noticed on another recent video you paused to get a look at one that i hope was being refurbished and not to be replaced by the more modern stainless. it was pretty interesting to catch a glimpse of the inner workings to see how they were built back in the day. macy's does such a beautiful job with their christmas decor and displays every year! 😃😮👏☃
