Well, I've tried to correct my typo a couple of times now, but for some reason it won't take it. That should, of course, say "Woolwich Arsenal".

That'll be the naughty word filter being a bit over-zealous and not liking the word rearnal because it has the word rear in it, so it gets automatically substituted.
We all know what rear should be It wasn't you

I've now tweaked the filter so only the exact word is changed rather those four letters when contained within another word.
Tbh, not sure it needs to be on the list at all, I'll have a chat with the other staff about removing it.

elsombernie's original posts said Woolwich rearnal because of the naughty word filter, those posts have now reverted to the way they were when they were written, though interestingly mine hasn't Perhaps because I edited the post and maybe that concreted rear in I don't know, but it looks like everything's been fixed

I don't think I have a clean sheet today but here goes: A - Beckton B - Lewisham C - King George V D - Woolwich Arsenal Link - They are or have been DLR termini on extensions built post opening. 5th - If my link is correct then that leaves me with Bank or Stratford International for the 5th and as all the above are DLR only then I'm going to assume the 5th is Stratford International. And B is Lewisham. I believe that the link is successive extensions of the DLR with the 5th in the set being Stratford International. Looks like Deep Level pipped you all at the post, but only by a few minutes for location A xplaistow Answer: Location A: Beckton - east end from arriving train [Chris M] (click for a larger version) Location B: Lewisham - light and roof arch [Chris M] (click for a larger version) Location C: King George V - from Claremont Close [Chris M] (click for a larger version) Location D: Woolwich Arsenal - Beresford Square entrance [Chris M] (click for a larger version) Link: These are terminal stations of DLR extensions in chronological order 5th in the set: Stratford International
