Depot ( or ) is from the French ''dépôt'' which means a deposit (as in geology or banking) or a storehouse. In English, depot can mean any one of a number of things, with minor variances between the different English speaking countries: ==Transport== * Transport hub for freight * Motive power depot, where trains and trams are sheltered and eventually maintained when not in use * Propellant depot, which supplies fuel to spacecraft * Castaway depot, contains stores and survival gear for victims of shipwrecks * A train depot, where mainly locomotives are sheltered and repaired * Used as a part of railway station's name, because the same place was previously or still is being used as a train shelter and naturally became a railway station as well (e.g. Boise Union Pacific Depot) * Bus garage or 'bus depot', where buses are sheltered when not in use * Used as a part of bus station's name (e.g. Ang Mo Kio Bus Depot) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「depot」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
