View of the platforms

There was a previous station on the same site, called Poplar station, which was served by the North London Railway. The location of this station can be seen in the bottom-right hand corner of the Map of Poplar, 1885, referred to under External links.

The station is located on the DLR's Stratford branch, between Poplar and Langdon Park stations, and is in Travelcard Zone 2.

There is a crossover south of the station which allows trains from Stratford and Poplar to reverse here.

Serco announced that from the 24th August 2009, the frequency on the Stratford to Lewisham branch would be reduced at peak times to one train every 7 minutes, from the current 5 minute frequency. This is to accommodate a flyover that will increase frequencies by 30 seconds on the Bank to Lewisham line.[1]
