Hi All, Me and Ivo from the Rail Forums are going out on Tuesday to do a DLR challenge (Since the new Line to Stratford International Opens on The Tuesday), We've just planned a route and we've got 1 hr 54, for it

Starting at Bank finishing at Tower Gateway

Hope we do well

Wish us luck

Neil

Wish you luck? Why, when you don't like us "tube geeks".

Now run along back to the rail forum, there's a good boy

As the existing record is 2:00, I very much doubt it is possible to do 1:54 with Stratford International.

The Record will be reset, from Tuesday

so..

Agreed.

Hi all

I just thought I'd introduce myself, and here seemed an obvious place to do it. I'm Ivo, Neil's team mate for this, and I have met several of this forum before now, including among others Andi.

Neil's 1:54 was a mistake; it did not include several factors and was calculated wrongly. As things stand we are confident that our time is strong, but it is of course longer than 2 hours.

Anyway, hello!

Hello...

Neil making an error when calculating his route time, now that is a shocker

Welcome to the forum anyway

Looks like its not opened yet.

Maybe it'll open later.

Also seems some people are deluded enough to think that Guinness are actually interested in this challenge!!
