Welcome to IWETHEY!

New DLR is fully automatic
The only humans involved are the euphemistically-titled Revenue Protection Officers - they check that you've not jumped the barrier.

Tube will be going the same way within 10 years, I predict. Bigger and busier than the LA metro (roughly 10x daily ridership).

ETA: DLR ridership, on its own, is on par with the entire LA Metro.
