Construction has begun on Russia’s largest electric depot, Troitskoye.

Construction continues on the Troitskaya Line. In September 2024, we launched four stations: Tyutchevskaya, Generala Tyuleneva, Universitet Druzhby Narodov, and Novatorskaya. In December 2024, we opened three more: Kornilovskaya, Kommunarka, and Novomoskovskaya. In September 2025, Vavilovskaya, Akademicheskaya, Krymskaya, and ZIL stations will open.

The depot will be built on a 26.7-hectare plot of land between Kaluzhskoye and Novomikhaylovskoye Highways. Eleven buildings will be erected as part of the project.

The largest facility is the production and administrative block, covering approximately 100,000 square meters. Complexes of similar size and technological capabilities have never been built in the country before. It will house:

1) an administrative and amenity building;

2) production and amenity blocks;

3) a motor depot for servicing and repairing motor rail vehicles;

4) a repair building with workshops for rolling stock maintenance and repair;

5) a train wash area;

6) a wheel set turning area for rolling stock.

It will also house:

1) 70 inspection pits, twice the usual number;

2) a training ground for locomotive crews to hone their train operating skills;

3) an energy complex that will service the new depot exclusively. Completion of the depot is scheduled for 2029.

Sergey Sobyanin announced that the capital has begun construction of the Troitskoye electric depot, which will service trains on the Troitskaya Line, currently under construction. The depot will be the largest and most innovative in the country.
