1:32 scale working model of a Docklands Light Railway P86-stock train and station set
In 1987 the Docklands Light Railway (D.L.R.) opened. The D.L.R. trains are driverless as computers control their operation. This is a 1:32 scale working model of a DLR train and a representation of an 'initial' DLR station as it would have looked when the railway first opened.
The train shown is modelled on the P86-stock, which was used to open D.L.R. services. Once the Bank extension was opened, this design of train was replaced. The station is typical of the early design, which has been replaced during successive reconstructions of the system.
