I can't see the reason to have them at Bank as anyone travelling from
Bank DLR should have touched in somehere on the tube (not necessarily
the case at Canning Town or Stratford)


The validators are for people who didn't enter the system at a tube station
but want to use prepay for their DLR journey.


How do people get to the validators without either arriving at the station by tube train, or
entering at Bank tube station? I can only think it's people who arrive by DLR and immediately want
to retrace their steps.

People who started their journey at an ungated NR station and interchanged to
the tube at somewhere like Moorgate perhaps?
