AIUI the Crossrail maintenance depot will be at Reading. Crossrail's depot is at Old Oak Common, in the area currently given over to tunnel segment manufacture. The new depot being built at Reading is to replace the existing upper and lower triangle DMU maintenance and stabling sites, and is also intended to provide facilities for the EMUs planned for the route following electrification, i.e. the second hand 319s. Space is also allocated for IEP maintenance. I'm sure I have seen at least one plan of the Reading redevelopment with Crossrail depot on it, possibly only sidings. It was the one where the map was a tear-drop shape if that gives a clue to which one I mean, I had a copy on this machine but must have deleted it. -- Graeme Wall This account not read, substitute trains for rail.
