go to Bank station to make their change. Fabulous! "

So I don't know how Bank station can cator for the crowd


The real question is whether a DLR built so cheap that escalators only
last seventeen years can cater for anything.

A significant part of the solution would be for SET to be forced to
accept PAYG between Lewisham/Greenwich and Cannon Street/Charing
Cross.

With the ELL and the DLR being screwed up at the same time, the PAYG
route has been taken away.
