Riassunto

An essential part of the railway industry is the provision of maintenance?or Traincare as it is now called?depots to service and house locomotives and rolling stock. Many of the depots used were either based on the site of former steam sheds or represented new facilities built to cater to the arrival of diesel and electric traction, but in an age when rolling stock is leased and the manufacturers have a build-and-maintain contract, new depots have been built away from traditional locations. This new abc guide provides a handy guide to the depots that are currently in use for the contemporary railway network. Each entry has a location map and information about the owners, rolling stock handled, address, and so on. As with the earlier volumes, the book is not an invitation to visit the sites, but will include address details for enthusiasts to make application for permits to visit.
