The Anonymous Widower

From Poplar To Canary Wharf

I walked from Poplar Station to Canary Wharf, taking pictures of the Docklands Light Railway and the building of the Crossrail station at Canary Wharf.

It’s going to be an architectural masterpiece when it’s finished.  Or I certainly hope so!

One of the great things about using the Docklands Light Railway is that on a hot day like yesterday, it is a great way to explore the Eastern parts of London. Most of the stations have lifts and give good views of what is going on. The area is steeped in history and some great architecture from the old to the very modern.

The ticketing system is effectively, hop-on and hop-off, so you just use your Oyster once or buy a paper ticket and you’re away.

Someone needs to write a proper tourist guide to the Docklands Light Railway.
