Default Isle of Dogs Crossrail station

There are quite a few new mock pictures of Crossrail stations up on
their website at:
http://www.crossrail.co.uk/80256B090...View&count=999

From the following (large) photos, can anyone identify which dock Isle
of Dogs station is in?
http://makeashorterlink.com/?B2DD620B8

I'm pretty sure it's the eastern end of the North section (near West
India Quay DLR) but I'd like to double check.

From what I can tell it looks as if it is (roughly) where indicated by
the arrow on that map:

I'm not sure if that's the sort of information you were after.

That matches up with what I thought.

Looks to me like it will be almost immediately south of Poplar / east
of West India Quay DLR stations.

(Also, the bridge in the background appears to be the one recently
constructed (opposite Poplar Station), linking Aspen Way with North
Colonnade/Churchill Place).

Yep, that's good thanks.

yep I agree with that assessment. I think it all looks a bit small as an
entrance to what will probably be a busy station but the scale of the
image may be deceptive.

It does look more like a DLR station entrance than a Crossrail one.
Compare with Paddington, Bond St, Moorgate & Liverpool St etc.
