Suggestions for Light Rail Station near London

Jack S. • September 22, 2018If you’re here to visit the Olympic Park, it’s not very well sign posted. For event days at the London Stadium, it’s best just to follow the crowd. Easier than Stratford Station on event days.

Tom Y. • January 12, 2011In the winter it's worth getting on from the Supermarket side so you can stand behind the glass doors. It's bloody freezing otherwise.

Liam H. • January 12, 2012Go to the steam ship pub at leamouth round about on a Friday night it's blinding

Mark J. • June 26, 2011The old Poplar Baths is just outside the station (turn left). Quite an interesting old building.

Matt G. • April 19, 2011If you are lucky you might see Sammy the seal having a swim

Bruno B. • December 1, 2015You can take the Tower Gateway trains and change at Shadwell for the Bank DLR... Much less wait :)

Stephanie L. • April 17, 2010Walk to the far western end of the platform to Change to the central, Waterloo and city, and northern lines. Go to eastern end of platform to change to central and district from monument stn.

Alistair • April 9, 2013In a change to my previous tip which actually had 8 likes.. When you checking could you please tweet @thejawsofobcity and tell him your here.

Marie S. • February 20, 2017The Oyster touch-in/out panel is hard to spot: it's downstairs. Don't miss it before getting up to the trains!

Sandeep D. • May 1, 2013Good connectivity for both Canary Wharf and Stratford. On weekends there are 10 min gap between trains

Hilmi R. • February 28, 2011Take the Stratford bound if you're not going past Canary Wharf. It's always empty!

Dale C. • April 7, 2010Second door in South-bound is perfect for Canary Wharf escalator :)

HISTORY UK • February 14, 2011London’s first purpose-built docks were built here in 1802, cutting the area off from the shore and creating the ‘Isle’ of Dogs. At the time they were the largest dockyards in the world.

Carl G. • July 4, 2016Decent connections across East London and into the centre of the city.

The Public R. • September 24, 2011Get tip top fresh fish @billinsgate market but be early

Sango S. • March 4, 2013Dress well in winter if you are to use it; probably the best in summer.

Joseph S. • November 3, 2010Going to Shadwell? It's a nice straightforward walk from here, and there's a bike highway built along it.

Ашли . • July 23, 2015A delightfully quiet transport terminus in the City of London. Short walk from anywhere in the square mile and a great connection to the east. Certainly beats Bank.
