If you are walking a node stream and want to navigate things like UP/DOWN and error nodes you have to resort to some shenanigans like comparing strings ("UP"/"DOWN", knowing that node type 0 is reserved as "<invalid>", etc.). 


Actually I see now that UP,  DOWN, <invalid> are reserved in antlr.runtime.Token.
