Docklands Light Railway rolling stock

I want to introduct something about Eclipse Head Light. HEAD LAMP ( CHROME HOUSING & ION PROJECTOR W/ HALO RIM) Eclipse Head Lig

B92 stock train 57 arrives at Canary Wharf
The Docklands Light Railway (DLR) is operated by high-floor, bi-directional, single-articulated cars with four doors on each side, with each train normally composed of two 28m cars. Each car has 70 seats and has a total capacity of 284 passengers. The cars have no driver cab, although there is a small driver console concealed behind a locked panel at each car end from which the passenger service agent (PSA) can drive the car when necessary. Other consoles at each door opening allow the PSA to control door closure and make announcements whilst patrolling the train. Because of the absence of a driver position, the fully glazed car ends provide an excellent forward (or rear) view for passengers.
Despite having high floors and being highly automated, the cars are derived from a German light-rail design intended for use in systems with elements of street running. All the cars that have operated on the system look similar, but there have been five separate types, of which three are still in operation on the DLR. A further car type, with quite different styling, was first displayed in March 2008 and entered service in September 2008.
P86/P89 rolling stock

A P89 stock train running in Essen, Germany
The fleet for the 1987 opening consisted of 11 light-rail vehicles built in 1986 by LHB in Germany and numbered 01 to 11. These were referred to as P86 stock, with P referring to Poplar depot, where they were maintained. These cars were built for the initial above-ground system and, because of the lack of appropriate fire-proofing, were not allowed to operate on the tunnelled extension to Bank. Because of this, and because adaptation to a new signalling system was too costly, these cars were sold in 1991 to Essener Verkehrs-AG of Essen, Germany, where they were extensively rebuilt and put into service on its Stadtbahn between 1994 and 1998. Originally, they retained DLR colours and were limited to route U11, but after a further modification programme started in 2005, trains are appearing in a yellow livery and are used on all routes.
In 1989, BREL supplied another ten LRVs, numbered 12 to 21. These share the characteristics of the original P86 stock. They were, though, equipped with sufficient fire-proofing to operate through the tunnels of the Bank extension. These were designated P89 stock and remained in operation on the DLR until 1995. The P89s were rebuilt with sliding doors. They were also sold to Essen, where they entered service between 1999 and 2004 after major modifications had been carried out. They are now painted yellow and blue and are used on all routes of the Essen Stadtbahn network.
As the Essen Stadtbahn does not use fully automated driving, and uses overhead power collection, the modifications to both sets of cars involved fitting driver's cabs and pantographs.
B90/B92/B2K rolling stock

B90 stock train 32 approaches Pontoon Dock
Further vehicles were required as the network grew and as the original P86 and P89 cars had to be replaced due to their unsuitability for the changed system conditions. Bombardier built 23 vehicles of B90 stock in 1991, 47 vehicles of B92 stock between 1993 and 1995 and 24 vehicles of B2K stock in 2001 and 2002. When new the B2K stock differed from the earlier vehicles in appearance due to doors and handrails painted in contrasting colours to their surroundings. They are also fitted with internal LCD display screens. These differences were all mandated by the Rail Vehicle Accessibility Regulations (RVAR) of the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA), which were not in force when the older stocks were built.
The B in the type codes refers to Beckton depot, where they are primarily maintained. They are of a common design and can be operated interchangeably in trains of two. All of them remain in service.

The DLR fleet at the end of 2004 was:
2244: Bombardier B90, built 1991
4591: Bombardier B92, built 19931995
9299, 0116: Bombardier B2K, built 20012002
The numbering of the last cars can be seen to have restarted at 01 and to repeat the numbers of some of the earlier cars which had been disposed of. The main reason for this was that the DLR computer system had only been designed originally to handle 2-digit car numbers, and an upgrade did not take place until some time after these cars were received.
DLR cars had a common livery of red, blue, and white upon delivery. Over the years, several vehicles have received all-over advertising livery.

Train Rolling Stock
Why do cityrail(sydney) trains have so much graffiti and vandalism even on the new rolling stocks?

cityrail is a metro-like system in Sydney, Australia. They have transit officers but they just hang around together at stations doing nothing while another train gets completely "bombed" downstairs.

what happens when you create a "special police" situation a bit like parking infringements being handed over to the local councils
