Going quietly mad here! A few weeks back there was a post that mentioned something regarding the DLR stations and Salute. Now, not only can I not find that post, there appears to be nothing on the TfL site about any planned closures, or disruption on the 22nd! Help! |

I think Custom House for Exel station is closed (and will still be closed on saturday). But Prince Regent station is in good order. It has also been told here that Prince Regent is the nearest station to the East Entry. I have not been there before, but I hope this will be the Entry to Salute. |

Customs House station (the one near the West end of Excel centre) is closed for renovations, but Prince Regent station at the East end is open – and Salute is apparently closer to that end this year. |

You can get off at West Silvertown and walk up to a stretch of water, turn right and cross over a foot bridge into the Excel. Takes around 15 mins. |

Well that's genius! I Google "Custom House for Exel station is closed" and right away I get confirmation its closed until December! I guess its not a disruption "this weekend" by that logic. Thanks for the tip guys I'll pass it on to my mates coming by train. |

Custom House is closed for remodelling as it is going to be an interchange station between the DLR and Crossrail/Elizabeth Line. |

Thanks for the information TamsinP, as I'm coming by Tube and DLR. |

Custom House is closed for remodelling… Is that in HO, OO, N, TT or…what? |

Probably a bit more expensive than them! |

The show organiser's information is that the show has moved to the other end of the Excel building to be much closer to the other station (Prince Regent) which they say is open. Barry |
