The Docklands Light Railway (DLR) is used in the east of the city of London, and although it's a "light rail" and not a tube, as it's not underground and its tracks have no direct connection with other tube lines, they use the same tickets and appear on tube maps anyway. A curiosity about this line is that the trains are driverless, they do not have a driver; however, there is always a person called a "passenger service agent" (PSA) who is watching that everything is going well, and who can even take control of the train in case of an emergency. This line began to be built in 1980 as a way of regenerating the East London docks, which had been almost cut off since 1960. Initially it was meant to be a tramway, but plans were changed due to the exponential increase in passengers, and little by little new stations and new sub-lines were created, which have led to the line map becoming "a bit" more complicated. Although it looks like a spider web of routes on the map, it actually covers these four routes:
It's one of the most heavily used tube lines in London, averaging 101 million passengers a year in 2013, and even though there is no more recent data, in all likelihood the current number must be much higher.
