    Proposing today to bring the DLR (Docklands Light Railway) to TSW from Stratford International to Beckton (via Canning Town) and Woolwich Arsenal (via London City Airport) using B92 and B07 stock. Now yes, I know the DLR is technically driverless but the trains CAN be manually operated via a switch panel and the front/end of the trains, not only that but this route would make excellent for Guard Mode.

    I do hope that this can be brought to the game as it would make for an exciting addition to the game.

    I know you've acknowledged that the DLR EMU's are infact driverless, and they are technically driveable, but they are only ever driven in emergencies, or when the automated system is broken. If we did get this route in game, I think it would be the first route to have a full timetable but no playable services as a driver.

    This route could have a couple scenarios where you drive the units in an emergency or when the automated system has failed in a few different contexts. As you've said guard mode would be where this route would be the best, so this could be the first route in game where all the tt mode services are guardmode only.

    I thank you for not suggesting the new B23 stock to be included with the route since I personally think they look hideous and the livery is just dull.

    The only question I have is (I say just out of curiosity), why not include the entire network as 38 miles is doable.
