I know it's not a screenshot but the issue of useful research websites came up earlier so I thought I'd share some useful UK sites I've found...

A site mentioned earlier in regard to tunnels and other infrastructure:
http://www.forgottenrelics.co.uk/index.html

Heaps of useful railway station photos and history:
http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/

All sorts of large facilities, some of which were rail served:
http://www.subbrit.org.uk/

For those modelling military/government facilities, this site is also useful:

A couple of shots of WEN's reskinned Pacer in not quite prototypical NIR livery (okay so it wasn't a Pacer NIR had, it was a RB04...)

Were is the new DLR Station?

See here: http://www.bing.com/maps/#JnE9Lkxvb...3ZTQ3LjMyNzcyMDQ3NTI2MDMlN2UtOS4zNjAzNTE1NjI1

In the picture, its about 200m when you turn left past what used to be a pub (itself which has fallen victim of the axe, I wonder if it is because the line closed?), go through Parker Street, then turn right onto Hartmann Road until you get to a carpark, cross the road CAREFULLY, it is difficult, I've done it, turn left into the airport, bear left towards the stairways, go up the stairs and you are now in London City Airport station. That wasn't soo hard was it?
*pant*, *pant*, *pant*, *pant*.
Ooops, I forgot, I have 3 computers on my back.


The nearest DLR stations to this location are London City Airport & King George V.

Actually gamerouche, its London City Airport. If you fancy a longer walk, its Pontoon Dock. I know, because I've walked to LCA from Silvertown. And walked the distance from North Woolwich to Silvertown via Factory road, which is caked in some sort of syrip and you get the stench from the processing of sugar, which isn't very pleasent if I am really honest.


EDIT: King George V to North Woolwich is even easier, follow pier road which takes you to it... Simplez.
