Ugly.


I'm also unconvinced. I quite like the look of the current trains!


You're all like a bunch of old men - slipping into conservatism as
easily as slipping into your old slippers! You'll be harking back to
the days of two-carriage operation soon, with the old panoramic front
windows unhindered by emergency gangway doors, when the DLR used red,
blue and green line colours on their maps, when the trains had
bus-style doors that swung inwards and were most effective in squashing
small children and old ladies bags. Them were the days...


I like the stock used on the Jubilee line compared to other Underground
lines... and I never really liked the red, blue and green line colours.
But I dislike the new DLR livery!

Oh, and I think Tramlink's vehicles look rather dated already compared
to NET.

Maybe that'll spark off a few arguments!
