Poplar DLR station was opened on 21 August 1987, originally with just two platforms, being served only by the Stratford-Island Gardens branch of the Docklands Light Railway. As the DLR was expanded eastwards, the station was extensively given two extra platforms. This view looks east from the end of one of the platforms. The flyover carries trains towards Beckton or Woolwich Arsenal whilst trains to and from Stratford pass under the flyover.
