You're probably right. I had this idea the portal was going to be further
east for some reason. What happens to Pudding Mill?

It gets obliterated. Those nice Crossrail folks will build them a new
viaduct around the south side of the tunnel portal, and a new station.

It got me thinking, though - maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea to resurrect
that route. When the DLR branch to Stratford along the old NLL is done,
this branch will become slightly redundant (still useful for commuting
from points on it to Stratford, but not necessary for access from
Stratford to Docklands)

Trains on the new branch will only be able to head east (ie towards
Beckton or Woolwich), the opposite way to the existing branch. And of
course both branches are already redundant if you're prepared to get
the JLE and change at Canning Town or Canary Wharf.
