There is step-free access from the Bakerloo to the concourse at
Paddington.


That's a major improvement. Previously iirc there was an escalator down
to a minor concourse, with stairs from there to the platforms.

Where is the top of the lift?

The stairs from the LU ticket office/concourse to the main concourse
now incorporate escalators at the edges.

Luckily there was always an escalator from platform level leading to
the passageway to the ticket office, so it adds up to step-free
access.

Combining that with cross-platform interchange with Jubilee and the
fairly good accessibility thereof, it makes for some useful options
(assuming the escalators are working of course).
