Default DLR Still Getting Slower

Also, I wonder if this new speed restriction is due to the wobbling
actually having been unsafe, or was just to stop complaints from
alarmed passengers.


Have the DLR still not worked out how to deal with that issue? I
heard it was due to the use of tram-profile wheels on mainline-profile
rails. If that is the case, can't they just progressively replace or
reprofile the wheelsets?

Do the new sets have the same problem?
