I rest my case :)
Anyway, if the DLR does come over to MSB, would there be a fictional variant that would include a cab?

No, probably just the emergency manual controlls;

Unless someone does the Essen variant; the old DLR vehicles that were sold to Essen got a cab (and pantograph) before they could enter service there as tramway vehicles: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Docklands ... nhoehe.jpg

Or the pan could be used with the standard cab layout. I believe one of the DLR cars got sent to Manchester as part of a LRT demonstration in the late 1980s.
SFMTA does not know how to run a metro system or light rail or streetcar. 8-)

With a cab, I can really see the DLR being used on an all scenario route. One moment it would be in the median of a road, the next moment It's flying over and digging under roads at high rates of speed.

instead of adding a cab to it why not make two versions 1. With the Normal 3rd Rail shoes 2. With Rubber Tires to Run on AIrport Line :D

You know what, I'm just going to try to convince a friend to send his P865/P2020 models over here instead. The anticipation is killing me.
