      The DLR has customer service assistants as it's all above ground.
      Only outside the city centre. There's only two lines at the moment, they're building or rather digging two more now, gonna be a ring.

      They all have those weird platform door things too like they have on one or two tube lines.

      Only trouble is there's bedlam when one breaks down, they need to get a driver and a train towing thing in front of it to shift it. That's why I always take the train to the airport....

            You sack ALL the tube workers and watch how strike ballots that will occur on some trumped up payment thing.
