Depo kolejových vozidel Česká Třebová

Depo kolejových vozidel Česká Třebová, Railway depot in Česká Třebová, Czech Republic

Depo kolejových vozidel Česká Třebová is a locomotive and railway car maintenance facility located in eastern Bohemia. The site includes workshops, storage buildings, and track areas where specialized technicians perform repairs and routine servicing on trains and equipment.

A locomotive shed with a turntable stood here from the opening of the railway on 20 August 1845, and the depot was enlarged in 1848. During 1855–1909, when the line belonged to the French-financed State Railway Company, the station complex was modernised. A new engine house opened in 1932, then the most modern in Czechoslovakia, with a tall round water tower; its massive coaling crane stood until 1972. In 1938 the depot was split into Czech and German parts until 1945.

Railway enthusiasts call part of the site the "locomotive cemetery", where withdrawn engines such as the 749 nicknamed "Zamračená" (the Frowning One) wait to be scrapped. Visitors photograph them from beside the live tracks, so a reflective vest is advised. The last steam locomotive of the Česká Třebová depot was 310.922.

The depot lies by the Česká Třebová railway junction, where locomotives stand next to live tracks, so a reflective vest is advised when walking the grounds. The site is a working facility, not a museum, and the scrapping yard that operated from 1994 handled nearly 100 locomotives a year with 49 workers.

From 1994 the Česká Třebová site scrapped railway vehicles, and after 2005 it was the only scrapping workplace in the country, with 49 workers cutting up almost 100 locomotives a year. The last steam locomotive of the depot was 310.922; 556.0370 was the second-to-last, last fired in February 1980.
