DLR cars get new seats
DLR services are getting busier each year so we're introducing a new seating layout to increase the space available within the train, as well as it making it easier to board.
Between now and the end of 2015, our 55 B2007 stock vehicles are being converted to a longitudinal seating layout: this means that most of the seats will be against the walls instead of being in the middle of the cars where they are now. The transverse seats at either end will stay where they are.
The current layout, a mix of longitudinal and transverse seating, can can make it difficult for standing customers to move down between the seats. The converted cars have exactly the same number of seats and they're wider than they were before.
The conversion will be complete by mid-December.
