London City to the Olympics

THE LONDON OLYMPICS may now only be two years away but the opening of the new Docklands Light Railway (DLR) from Woolwich London City Airport to Stratford International is even earlier and is scheduled for the autumn of this year.  The train time from the airport to the Olympic site via Canning Town will be about 18 minutes. It will also allow passengers an easier connection to Stratford Regional, as the original Stratford is now called, serving both Overground and Underground.  The DLR has now taken delivery of all its new three-coach train units and is using them as and when required. www.dlr.co.uk
