Default Stratford International (was DLR website updated recently?)

This "assumption" leaves at least two major questions unanswered:

- what arrangements are envisaged for terminating NLL trains at Stratford
once the present NLL platforms are occupied by DLR services running via West
Ham?

So far as the NLL is concerned, ISTM that the obvious solution would be to
terminate the line in the very-little-used through Platform 12 (after
addition of an adjacent terminal bay platform 13 on the site of the former
siding), with operation at 25 kV through to/from Hackney Wick. These
platforms would provide part of the pedestrian route between Stratford
International and the existing Stratford interchange station.


My impression is that the NLL services proceed to the Lea Valley
platforms and continue up the Lea Valley line to Tottenham Hale etc.
Look at the blue lines on the maps in options 1,2,3 on the route
