Mobility Metro Services

We have facilities for the service and maintenance of Siemens rolling stock in Prague. One of our largest team is our team in the branch Mobility Metro Services, so-called MMS. Are you interested in the operation of the Kačerov depot, where the subway trains for line C have their base? Have a look at the report.

Line C of the Prague metro represents for many people an essential transport connection in our metropolis. However, few people know how many people are involved in taking care of the technical facilities, i.e. ensuring the maintenance and servicing of the train sets that run on this line. The maintenance of 53 sets of Metro C takes place at the Kačerov depot and is fully in the hands of our employees at Siemens Mobility.

We have been maintaining Metro C since 2005 with a method called full service. The transport company then ensures the operation of the trains. There are around 130 workers of various professions, from locksmiths, electromechanics, painters, and warehouse workers, to technicians and maintenance planning workers at the Kačerov depot. The maintenance plan for Metro C vehicles is precisely determined, it is determined by the number of kilometers traveled by each set. In addition to servicing the Metro C, we also cooperate with educational institutions in terms of practical training for students, thus helping electromechanics and locksmiths with their preparation for a new profession.
