Is something up with the DLR, eg maintenance being deferred or
something?

Speed seems to be so restricted over certain sections that I would
think that the timetable must have to take into account extended
journey times.

Heading north, it stops half way from Lewisham to Elverson Road and
then eventually trickles into the station. It goes at a crawl, with
frequent braking, through to Greenwich, and there are many other
sections where it seems to be slower than before.

The rocking/hunting is so bad on some sections (eg Mudchute to
Crossharbour) that it's making me quite nervous.

The speed and ride may never have been all that brilliant, but does
anyone know why both seem to be getting significantly worse in recent
months?
