Amazing video. The DLR was opened after I moved from London so this, and the history text, is a brilliant combination. Makes it more real than a Wikipedia page. Thanks for sharing.

What i think is a shame is that North Woolwich and Silvertown stations aren't included in the new Crossrail. It's great that some of the old line is being used but not making use of the stations even if they just did a peak time service to them.
May I suggest you extend your excellent ommentary to include the North Outfall Sewer, that the District Line is overhead and calls at at Weat Ham (with the Met. & C2C - then). Also the line does follow the old line/tram way from Canning Town to the tunnel (more or lsss). History just repeats itself what with Elizebeth Line also taking over the old Woolwich line you mention.

Thank you for such a fascinating video.
Can I ask, how long has this line been open in all of its forms?

There aren't any cabs on DLR stock. It's all automated trains. Good video, though, and plenty of useful info. Cheers
What is that building with the roof reminiscent of the Sydney Opera House seen from 10:46 - 11:09? Is it mechanical building for the Jubilee Line?
It's the tunnel portal for the Jubilee line.
Sorry I live in Edmonton Alberta.
