Xkcd/Trivia
Listed Trivia:

Miscellaneous trivia and information
- 954: Chin-Up Bar takes place on a 70-meter long escalator, described as the "longest in the country" -- this appears to be a reference to the escalator at Wheaton Metro Station in the Washington, DC Metro system. At the time of publishing (September 2011), this was, in fact, the longest single-span escalator in the Western hemisphere.
