I don't know, but those are the kind of thing I was thinking of,
particularly because the steps adapt to high floor platforms.

Never encountered them in Den Haag (by the time I was there I think
they'd got rid of them because there were enough GTLs to use instead
and they weren't as good) but I'm pretty sure I did see them in
Hannover itself some years ago.
