Our Wacky Capital: Escalator Madness on the Beijing Subway

Take it away, Mozart Line -- this bit at (I think) Chongwenmen Station on Line 5 shows the Beijing Subway not making sense.

The lady you're seeing in the picture is going up. On an escalator with the red X on. Meanwhile, the escalator you're supposed to use (no red X) is going the wrong way around.

Somebody come and fix this!
