Does anyone know if the stations on the City Airport extension are
built for three car operation?

A clarification:
- The City Airport extension has been built for two-car trains.
- The Woolwich extension is being built for three-car trains.
- Three-car trains will initially run only between Bank and Lewisham,
from 2009.
- Money has been allocated from the Olympic fund to extend platforms at
City Airport extension stations for three-car trains, for 2012.


Ah - thank you. I had ascertained the first and third points in your
list. However I have not been able to find anything on the DLR site
(from a quick search admittedly) that categorically states points 2 and
4 from your list.

Sorry to be a bit cheeky but can you point me to the definitive detail
from TfL that deals with the 3 car extension plans for other than Bank
to Lewisham. I have done a quick trawl of your site as well :-)
