A coaching depot plays a crucial role in maintaining the quality and reliability of passenger services. It is a facility where passenger train coaches are cleaned, repaired, and prepared for service before each journey. Essential activities at the depot include routine cleaning, minor repairs, and comprehensive safety checks, all of which ensure that coaches are in optimal condition for passengers.
