Transport for LondonDocklands Light Railway
DLR is one of Britain's great transport success stories, now carrying over 67 million passengers a year and consistently achieving record levels of reliability and passenger satisfaction.
One of the first light rail systems in Britain, with one of the world's most advanced automatic train control systems, the DLR has expanded faster than any UK railway.

The railway will play a crucial role in the success of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
Preparations are already well under way to expand the DLR network and transport tens of thousands of passengers to and from several competition venues, including the Olympic Park.
DLR works with franchise operator Serco Docklands and its concessionaires - responsible for building network extensions - to deliver a safe, reliable and cost effective service for east London residents, employees and visitors.
There are several railway extensions and enhancements already under way, including routes to Woolwich Arsenal and Stratford International, which will open in 2009 and 2010 respectively.
