This is taken from the Jubilee Line platforms. Originally these were used by the Docklands Light Railway Beckton line, but when the Jubilee Line came, the DLR was removed to a higher level, above its previous tracks, which were transferred to the Jubilee Line. At this time, tracks on the right were used by North London Line trains on their way to North Woolwich, but this route has been closed and the trackbed is being used for a new Docklands line, which will extend to Stratford International and should be open later this year.
