Locomotive depot Petrozavodsk (TCh-24) is located in the capital of the Republic of Karelia and is part of the Oktyabrskaya railway. It was founded back in 1916.
In 1959, a massive replacement of steam locomotives with diesel locomotives began on the Kirov railway. In this regard, in the late 1950s - early 1960s, Lengiprotrans developed a project for the reconstruction of the depot with a conversion to a heating system.
In 1962, the first repair of the locomotive was carried out at the locomotive depot in Petrozavodsk.
