Advantages: rarely delayed, good links

Disadvantages: weekend/evening has less frequent services

Living in the docklands area I often use the DLR - Docklands Light Railway to travel around the locale. The DLr stretches from Stratford in the North and Beckton in the East to Lewisham in the South and Bank and Tower Gateway in the west. It offers excellent links to the Jubilee, Central, Northern and District underground lines and operates efficiently and to schedule in the majority. The DLR is computer controlled and is without the traditional train driver. Security onboard is provided by the train captain who also controls the doors to ensure you get on and off safely! The DLR offers great links to Canary Wharf for bars, restaurants and cinemas and to Greenwich for a day in the park and boasts some of the greatest views of the incredible docklands area. In short a really exciting, efficient and inexpensive way to get around London's East end.
