Originally called the Commercial Railway, the London and Blackwall Railway (L&BR) in east London, England ran from Minories to Blackwall via Stepney, with a branch line to the Isle of Dogs, connecting central London to many of London's docks. It was located a major urban location in the hart of London's East East End. It's post WW2 decline and eventual replacement with the Docklands Light Railway (DLR) can be used as a good analogy to the rise and fall of the East End of London.

  • Originally called the Commercial Railway, the London and Blackwall Railway (L&BR) in east London, England ran from Minories to Blackwall via Stepney, with a branch line to the Isle of Dogs, connecting central London to many of London's docks. It was located a major urban location in the hart of London's East East End. It was operational from 1840 until 1926 (for passengers) and 1968 (for goods), closing after the decline of inner London's docks. Much of its infrastructure was reused as part of the Docklands Light Railway. The L&BR was leased by the Great Eastern Railway in 1866, but remained independent until absorbed into the London and North Eastern Railway at the 1923 Grouping. It's post WW2 decline and eventual replacement with the Docklands Light Railway (DLR) can be used as a good analogy to the rise and fall of the East End of London.
