New DLR trains to start daytime test runs from next week

You're going to start seeing the new DLR trains out on the railways from next week - although they won't be carrying any passengers yet. The new trains have been out and about as part of their testing and compliance process, but only when the railway is closed to passengers due to engineering works. Now that they have passed that stage of the trials, from next week they will start running around the DLR network during the daytime in between normal passenger services.
