Less welcome is the fact that passengers on the Stratford branch now
have no trains beyond Canary Wharf after 10am in the morning. Thanks!


The interchange isn't the world's most arduous.


And still the only branch with no service to the city.


Luckily, there are big blue trains with rainbows on the side, or small
white trains with red doors if you prefer, that will do that job for
you. I think it's fair to say that Stratford/City links are not a
major problem...


These trains don't stop at PUdding Mill Lane, Devons Road or Langdon
Park...

True. But the interchange at Poplar couldn't be easier - it's just
across the platform, and what's more the Canary Wharf and City bound
trains normally pull into the platforms at the same time so passengers
don't even have to wait.
