DLR problems
 
The DLR's new livery: why? It's just hideous. The original one is much
better.

Also, the timing of trains arriving at Poplar is rubbish if you've come
from the Stratford branch and want to change to a Beckton train. As you
arrive in the station you can see the Beckton train waiting there. It
then waits just about long enough for you to go up on to the
overbridge, cross to the Beckton/Stratford platform stairs and get
halfway down them. This leaves you with the full wait of 8 or 9
minutes. Why is this interchange so badly timed when the interchange
between Beckton and Stratford trains or Tower Gateway and Lewisham
trains is so well timed? The most annoying thing isn't that they miss
each other but that they miss each other by such a small amount of
time.

Lots of red. Oh, and wavy lines. Hideous as the man says!

I really like it. The internal colour scheme is very well thought out too.

I much preferred the other trial one on the other side of 42. Teal and
green I think it was. Looked more, sort of, DLR to me. The inside's
fine, I like it much better.

Hadn't they already started to repaint them into a drab light blue colour
with the circle and bar sign? Can't they make their minds up?
