White City Depot
London Underground traction maintenance depot / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
White City Depot is one of three traction maintenance depots on the Central line of the London Underground.[1][2][3][4] It is between Shepherd's Bush and White City tube stations. A depot on the site first opened in 1900 by the Central London Railway when the line first went into operation. A new underground depot opened in 2007, as part of the Westfield London shopping centre development.[5] This makes it one of only two depots on the London Underground to be completely underground, the other being Waterloo Underground Depot on the Waterloo and City line.
