I'm increasingly noting between 22:00 and midnight that the DLR platform
at Bank is incredibly busy and that by the time a train arrives it
leaves full (well, no seats available and a number of people standing).

Given the reduced frequencies at this time of night is there not a case
for increasing them given that many other services run at a higher
frequency but seem to take less passengers?

Or is it that the loads on the DLR peak on the Bank-Shadwell initial
leg and that it progressively gets emptier from then on?
