We were in Paris not so long ago and we visited Montmartre, I'm not sure how many steps we had to climb but my I worked out some muscles that day. When we visited it later that evening we took the lift, it was the biggest lift I've ever been in, it was like a room. That’s a great sign.

Always queued for the elevator. But before the DLR opened, we headed out to Greenwich, and took the pedestrian tunnel under the Thames. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenwich_foot_tunnel There was, of course elevator service heading both directions when we were going to Greenwich, but after spending all day wandering around the observatory, the maritime museum, etc., we got back to the tunnel and discovered the elevator going up on the London side was closed for maintenance. Ouch. Took two or three pints and a couple shots of Powers at the local to ease the ache in my legs enough that I could sleep. I’ve never taken the stairs there. Always queued for the elevator.

Even in St Pancras Station I snapped away, big camera in hand and bag on my back. Mike – yes, obviously healthy people in the UK :)

Of course it only warns that if you have health problems you should not go that way. Maybe your sign just assumes everyone does have health problems.
