The depot is equipped with a combi hall with automatic wash and de-icing systems for winter seasons. The workshop is also built to facilitate a smooth spare parts supply flow thanks to an automatic paternoster store and 130 square metres of storage space.
This facility will serve to maintain the regional trains that AB Transitio awarded CAF under the terms of a framework agreement signed in 2014 for an amount of more than €250 million. The base contract comprises the production of 20 electric units, four cars each, and 8 biodiesel-electric units consisting of three cars plus a power car. The contract provides for additional options that could increase the number of units by an additional 19 electric ones and 7 bimodal ones.
In 2019, CAF took over the Swedish company EuroMaint, specialized in the train fleet maintenance sector, an activity it combines with the supply of railway components for operators in the region.
