Not necessarily carts like the ones you see in shopping malls, but it's also for things that would not be safe on the escalators like:

Baby carts (forgot the proper name for them)
Large carrier bags
Those cart-like bags elderly people usually carry around that doubles as a walking assistant

Accidentally letting them go would be dangerous.

Stroller is the word you were looking for for baby cart. I hate when I can't think of a word, it pisses me off until I look it up or somehow remember and I can't focus on anything else.
