What is South Quay DLR station?
[[File:South Quay DLR roadside.jpg|thumb|South Quay DLR station roadside]] '''South Quay''' is a [[Docklands Light Railway]] (DLR) station on the [[Isle of Dogs]], [[London]], England. The station is between [[Crossharbour DLR station|Crossharbour]] and [[Heron Quays DLR station|Heron Quays]] stations and is in [[Travelcard Zone 2]]. South Quay station is located on the southern shore of the South Dock of the [[West India Docks]]. The current station platforms sit astride the channel connecting [[Millwall Dock]] to the [[West India Docks]]. ==History== The original South Quay station opened in 1987 in Millwall, and was a standard DLR phase 1 elevated station. It was later extended to permit the use of 2 car trains. The station was constrained by sharp curves at both ends and could not be further extended on its original site. The DLR planned to operate 3 car trains on this line so the station was relocated to a new site over Millwall Dock. The new site is some distance to the east, so the relocated station is partly in [[Cubitt Town]]. {{transport-stub}} [[Category:Docklands Light Railway stations]] [[Category:Railway stations in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets]]
