What are trolleybus depots? This is the depot where all transport vehicles are located. Repairs and scheduled inspections are also carried out here. Moscow is a large and densely populated city. Accordingly, a large number of trolleybuses run through the streets of the capital. The movement of this vehicle was opened on November 15, 1933. Today there are more than eight depots in the city, we will consider some of them in the article.
Trolleybus depot 1
The transport organization is a branch of Mosgortrans. It was opened in 1935. At that time, the park had 61 cars at its disposal. By 2015, this figure had risen to 222 units. Like some other trolleybus depots, it was closed as an independent depot (August 2016). This is done in order to attach it to the Fatip.
Second Depot
In 1937, the second trolleybus fleet was opened (its other name is Novokosinsky). It consists of 138 cars. They operate on 10 routes that connect several districts of the city. Like other trolleybus parksMoscow, this organization uses transport, usually domestic. By the way, earlier the number of flights was much higher. However, in 2014, some routes were transferred to the fourth bus depot. Therefore, their numbers have declined sharply.
Trolleybus depot 4
The fourth park has the status of closed. He has been working since 1955. The decision to stop work was made in 2014. Like other trolleybus depots, it laid its routes through the Central and Northern districts of Moscow. On April 11, 2014, the trolleybuses of this depot went on their flights for the last time. After they were distributed to other parks. The fate of the building is still unknown. Perhaps it will house a museum of passenger transport.
Park 5
Trolleybus parks, as a rule, do not change their location. However, depot number five, opened in 1958, has moved. It should be noted that the park on the old territory was closed in 2003. On the new one, it was opened only five years later (2009). The true reasons for these delays are unknown. Today, the park serves eight routes. There are 150 rolling stocks in it.
