systems and get through the necessary regulatory processes before
passengers can be carried.


Maybe they learned from the Woolwich opening, but it is taking longer
than expected to train staff with anger-management and clue-possession
issues in the difference between "ticket-buying passengers photographing
a new railway" and "evil terrorists planning to take over the world"?

Perhaps I might take a copy of the DLR's letter of apology with me when
I go see the new bit, just in case!
