At first glance it is difficult to tell who or what is advertising on the trains but on boarding the GE logo is on the doors advertising particular products including the body scanners. A report on the internet suggests the advertising liveries will remain in situ for 16 weeks since original application (which was in mid July).<\/p>\n<p>This advertising\u00a0livery is not the only one to be currently carried on the Docklands Light<br \/>\nRailway with <strong>54<\/strong>, <strong>82<\/strong> and one other unit in use in an advert for Lyca Mobile. This livery uses a white base colour with red doors.<\/p>\n<p>One further point about the service offered on the Docklands Light Railway during the<br \/>\nOlympics is that for most journeys it appears that the trains were being driven by members of staff rather than operated automatically as per the norm.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1539\" style=\"width: 560px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/?attachment_id=1539\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1539\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1539\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1539\" title=\"dlr-ge\" src=\"http:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/dlr-ge-550x365.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"365\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/dlr-ge-550x365.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/dlr-ge-1024x680.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/dlr-ge.jpg 1286w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1539\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The three car DLR unit advertising General Electric is seen here at Poplar on 10th August with 94 at the back.
