One thing to note at 1:14 that Elizabeth line on carriage diagrams fr connections is shown as “Elizabeth Line” whereas Jubilee and all the other lines are just the line name. This is because the Elizabeth line is a seperate mode to the underground
@@TheRobloxian116 I don't know. I only know why the DLR was built in the first place. Because the Tories hate rail and the didn't give funding for building rail so to overcome this they built a light rail.
Definitely not text to speech, bear in mind it dates from 2006 - the technology was nowhere near advanced enough back then to sound this real. There is no way it is a voice synthesis system, I think someone misunderstood what they were told at some point. The fact they have added in Emma Hignett segments due to the original voice being no longer available proves it enough to me - if it was synthesis, they could get her to say anything they liked for the rest of time. Not everything you read on the internet is true. The bigger question should be why TfL have not released the audio files - I am assuming it is similar to the Piccadilly line, where the recordings are held in a bespoke format they are unable to convert back to WAV/PCM.
@azicritique I'm afraid it is text to speech. The technology while new, was rather expensive for back in the day. I'm unsure of the particular year these announcements were added however
I love the sudden interlude for the Jubilee and Elizabeth line announcements, then straight back to the DLR woman after 😂
Yay I love the docklands light railway
DLR Announcement 📢
Excellent video!

For the ordinary passenger, including James Blunt, the Elizabeth line is just one more tube line.
they should announce london overground east london line interchanges at shadwell
They don't announce London Overground at all
Yeah was thinking that too
Believe it or not heron quays is closer to the Canary Wharf jubilee line station than Canary Wharf is
I believe it
Add to my favourite stopping is SHADWELL!!!!!!@@!!!!!!@@@@
Why do I feel like on the DLR the stations are so close like not even a mile
Many Of them are close to each other. However consider Pudding and Stratford, Bank and Shadwell, etc
yeah, but why are they close to each other what the DLR can’t handle long distances

The only public transport in London that doesn't use a real persons voice
It's a text to speech system
it does use now Emma for the Elizabeth Line. But I agree. And it isn't even updated, no overground at Shadwell
Oh, the new DLR and Picc line will be using it
@@TransporterTony i would be happier of Sarah
