Technical Specifications
Just like with the Kiev Metro, government planning agencies allowed for a maximum of five carriage trains that would fit on the 100 metres (330 ft) station platforms without any modification to the station structure. Specifically, 25 five-carriage trains are assigned to serve the Kholodnohirsko–Zavodska Line, serviced from the Depot-1 "Moskovske", located between the Moskovskyi Prospekt and Marshala Zhukova stations.
Interestingly, the Kholodnohirsko–Zavodska Line was the first metro line in the Soviet Union (and the Kharkiv Metro) to use a unified central time system (Russian: ЦЭЧС-75), produced by the Khronotron factory in former city of Leningrad in modern-day Russia. Before the introduction of this system, all of the stations of the system used an analog clock system, where in the intervals in between train arrivals a full rotation of the clock hand amounted to five minutes.

Famous quotes containing the word technical:
“In effect, to follow, not to force the public inclination; to give a direction, a form, a technical dress, and a specific sanction, to the general sense of the community, is the true end of legislature.”
—Edmund Burke (1729–1797)
