Inclinator?
Appears slow and expensive?
They also had a traditional elevator, for ADA.
Probably a maintenance elevator too?

What’s the point of the inclinator?

No, there is an elevator above and an elevator below the inclinator. From the train level, you can ride up a vertical elevator to the mezzanine. From there, you can take the inclinator to the basement level of the old 7-11 tower, or the same level underground on the trolley side. From the basement level, you can ride another elevator to street level. From the train to the basement level, you also have stairs or escalators (when they work) as an alternative. From the basement level to the street, there is an escalator in the tower, but on the other side, it is the elevator or the stairs.

But there is no elevator from the mezzanine (located under Central expressway) to the top. There are also a pair of hidden emergency tunnels and stairs to the surface from the train level.
