The Docklands Light Railway ('''DLR''') is a Light Rail system serving the redeveloped Docklands area of East London, England . It extends to Stratford in the north, and Lewisham in the south, west to Bank , close to the City financial district, and east to the rest of the Docklands, London City Airport , Beckton and Woolwich . The DLR has separate track and trains from the London Underground , but the two systems share a ticketing system and the DLR appears on the London Underground’s Tube Map .
