Waterloo Underground Depot is a London Underground maintenance depot which stables the Waterloo & City line's fleet of 1992 Stock trains. The depot is entirely below ground and is situated beyond the Waterloo & City line platform end at Waterloo Underground station.[2] Trains from Bank reverse at the depot before returning. It is one of the smallest depots on the underground.
History
Around 1987, Class 487 EMUs were allocated to the depot.[3] Class 482 trains were also stabled here when the line was operated by British Rail prior to 1994.
