Pudding Mill Lane Station – 24th October 2014

Crossrail claim, that the Pudding Mill Lane DLR station, is the first one they have delivered.

It is certainly impressive, with a high level of attention to detail.

Note in the pictures the retaining wall for the Crossrail lines disappearing into the ground at the station to go under London. Apparently, the piling rig being used is one of the biggest in the world.

I did like the idea of using wooden rather than steel posts to prevent vehicle entry,! Especially, as they are worthless to scrap metal thieves.

It does look that this DLR station will be the place in Central London, where you will take kids of all ages to see the new Crossrail trains running.

It is also interesting to look at the architect’s drawings and pictures for the station.
