Gosh. That is a good idea. Is there something similar for the buses? Starting with the two "heritage" routes, perhaps? You would have to try synchronising with each stop, I suppose, which would be much tricker with the variable travel times.
Well, I guess it wouldn't be too hard for a developer to write a smartphone app that checks the GPS location and adjusts the playback accordingly.
Between Prince Regent and Royal Albert stations on the Beckton route, the line takes a number of curves climbs and dips. If you sit at the front, enjoyment of the section can be enhanced by pretending to be on roller-coaster; throwing your arms up or sideways and appropriate vocals all add to the experience. However this not recommended on arush hour train crowded with tired and grumpy commuters.
The podcasts are intended for tourists, who, I would have thought, would be very much the target market for the cable car. The Jubilee Line is SO last century!
(if you're paying cash, the cable car is also cheaper)

The picture your comment created in my mind made me laugh out loud.

I don't know how old you are but I'm picturing some middle aged man behaving like a kid in a fairground while all those around him are thinking "We have a right nutter here".
Roller-coaster simulation on the DLR requires a minimum of 2 people to play. Solo is sure to get other passengers moving to the other carriage. And less of the middle aged please. Its a great activity for us over 60s.

Sadly, it's no longer possible to download them, as they've been moved to the more trendy SoundCloud, and listen to them on a iPod etc.
