My growing-up-BFF works for Otis Elevator Company (yes. He is an elevator salesman). So I know all about escalators. ;D
It's an instrument. A resonator guitar. I want desperately to learn how to play it, but alas, I am too lazy.
If you have ever listened to Allison Krauss and Union Station, you've heard it. Jerry Douglas is so famous (he is to the Dobro what Hendrix, Clapton, and Jimmy Page are to the electric guitar combined) that when he tours with them, they change the name of the band to Allison Krauss and Union Station featuring Jerry Douglas. No lie.
Check him out here! He's awesome! Towards the end his fingers are moving so fast you wouldn't believe it!

I love American folk music.
