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?
Given that it doesn't happen elsewhere on the DLR (or not that I've
noticed anyway) then surely if that really is the problem then it's
that section of track that should be replaced, not the wheels.
