Central Rivers TMD (also known as Barton-under-Needwood CMD[1]) is a railway maintenance depot, located in Barton-under-Needwood, Шаблон:Convert south-west of Burton on Trent, England. It was built by Bombardier Transportation as the central maintenance facility for the Class 220 and 221 Voyagers then being delivered to Virgin CrossCountry. It came into operation on 8 September 2001.[2] The nearest railway station is Burton on Trent.[3]
This site was chosen due to being close to Virgin Cross Country's Birmingham hub as well as being relatively close to Derby and Crewe. The depot's facilities include inspection and working pits, hoisting facilities, train washing and refueling is designed for a planned turnaround of up to 20 serviced trains per night.[4]
The Virgin CrossCountry franchise finished in November 2007, however Central Rivers continues to maintain the Voyagers for its successor CrossCountry as well as Avanti West Coast.
