The DLR doesn't sell Oyster, so all Oyster holders will have got it

normal route to/from the platform from/to the direction an Oyster
holder is likely to be coming/going. Some of them are very badly
placed, for no apparent reason.


I have wondered if it would make more sense, given the open nature of
DLR's system, to have a flat fare and readers on-board instead of
having them on the stations.
