A modern accent in tasteful harmony with the decor

of Kowloon's handsome Gala Theatre is provided by

the illuminated, clear transparent balustrades of the

Hitachi escalator, installed to convey patrons swiftly,

effortlessly and noiselessly between the main lobby

and the first floor. Efficiency and economy of space

have been combined with the escalator's reversible

control feature, permitting travel up or down

dictated by traffic flow within the building.
