How many depots can claim to be the largest on the London Underground? Right here, in the London Borough of Brent, stands Neasden Depot. It’s not just big, it’s the biggest! Nestled between Neasden and Wembley Park stations on the Metropolitan line, this place has been a vital cog in London’s transport network since 1882. Originally, Neasden Depot started its life as a production powerhouse. It churned out locomotives and carriages for the Metropolitan Railway, with the last locomotive rolling off the line in 1898. Over time, it transitioned from building to maintaining. Today, this sprawling site is a hive of activity, responsible for the upkeep of the modern S Stock trains you see on the Circle, District, Hammersmith & City, and Metropolitan lines. It’s a crucial behind-the-scenes operation that keeps London moving.
