Chiltern Railways use this depot at their Aylesbury terminus to undertake maintenance work on their trains. In this view on the left is unit number 168216, in the centre is number 165013, while end on is redundant coach number 51411 from a much earlier slam-door train stock unit. The line on the right gives access to the depot from the station, but otherwise is only currently used for freight services to a landfill site further north. It was originally part of the main Great Central Railway line between London and Sheffield.
