Bahnbetriebswerk Nürnberg West, Railway maintenance facility in Gostenhof district, Nuremberg, Germany
The Nuremberg West train depot encompasses an eight-track workshop hall with lengths between 56 and 163 meters across 130,000 square meters of space.
The facility began operations in 1869 as Betriebswerkstätte Nürnberg Centralbahnhof, maintaining 160 locomotives and over 3,000 wagons with 900 workers.
The depot represents the evolution of German railway infrastructure, transforming from a steam locomotive facility to a modern regional train maintenance center.
The current Regio-Werkstatt employs 200 technicians who perform maintenance on S-Bahn trains and other DB Regio AG vehicles throughout the year.
A major fire in 2005 destroyed the historic circular locomotive shed and several preserved locomotives, leading to significant structural changes.
