This is due to crappy announcement system at Stratford station. DLR
has it's own system, which I believe covers only DLR platform +
northern end of platforms 3 and 5. The DLR announcements are
definitely separate from the main announcement system (which leads to
conflicts when station staff talks over the DLR announcements).

My favourite is when TfL announcements about Stratford being a no smoking
overrides announcements about which stations a peak hour train is stopping
at (the Shenfield service has a complex pattern of stops at . As the east
end of platform 5 has no monitor and many commuters arrive on the Central
Line, being able to know if the train stops at your station is rather more
important than a stock announcement.
