C is not Cutty Sark, though is does begin with a C. B is not on the W&C, but is on The Tube.

Station C: Canary Wharf DLR - lift to northbound island platform [Chris M] (click for a larger version) Incidentally, Deep Level, I took a photograph of a DLR location a couple of days ago that I hope will elude even you! |

Well the station it is of is not (currently) scheduled to appear in September so it'll be a while before it appears.

Are they all stations where train crews can change? I know that Upminster, Morden and Edgware Road definitely are, but am not sure about the DLR arrangements.

It isn't about train crews, and although your not close you're not a million miles away either. "Change" is relevant.

No (direct) interchanges between lines?

The relevant changes aren't interchanges.

All stations have been rebuilt/changed over the years and/or are part of extensions?

The station buildings are irrelevant in this case, as is when they were built.

I'll give you half points for that, the announcement maybe your clue to the rest of the points.

Trains can come out of service and go straight to depot?

In theory trains can terminate and run out of service to the depot at any station. There is no direct depot access (other than via running lines) from Canary Wharf DLR or Edgware Road Circle though.
You're on the right lines though.

Not quite, but very, very nearly. AFAIK trains do not go straight to the depot at Canary Wharf DLR or Edgware Road (Circle) after coming out of service. What can they do though?
