The Truck Depot

"Peter, Army's still in Riverside, waiting for you at the depot, we finished the truck hurry"

The Truck Depot is seen in the final chapter of the DLC campaign, Crash Course in Left 4 Dead. Finding out that the military pulled out of the area back to the nearby town of Riverside, the Survivors decided that they need to make their way to the town by using an armored truck.

History
Located on the other side of the Whitney County Bridge, right beside the Recycling Plant, this large warehouse helps repair and maintain large delivery vans and semi-trucks. The depot has a fairly medium-sized yard to help store vehicles and is enclosed with a chain-link fence to help stop the trespassers. The warehouse has a storage room for parts, a staircase leading to a small rooftop area and more extra room for large scale vehicles such as buses. In the main area of the building are two heavy duty vehicle lifts designed to slowly lift large, heavy vehicles high up in the air to allow mechanics and technicians to work underneath the vehicle.

Current Status
Once the military outpost was overrun at the bridge, the remaining refugees had to improvise a new way to get to the town of Riverside. Many fled through the county looking for a way out. Some Survivors had the idea of heading to the truck depot and reinforcing a van and drive straight to Riverside. They left "a note" in a safe room to the other Survivors to head to the truck depot in order to escape. The Survivors at the depot created some defense of measures by closing the fence, parking two buses side-by-side and use the roof as a vantage point to kill the Infected and set a minigun up on top of the storage room. They also most likely brought a generator in as they needed the power to use the vehicle lifts as well as lighting to see what they are doing. However, the noise and lighting alerts the Infected to their position and the Survivors are killed just as they finished working on the truck.

Once the Survivors reached the safe room, they saw the message of the other Survivors and headed to the depot. By the time that they got there, it seems that the Infected had their way with the other Survivors and left them for dead. Seeing the armored truck ready, but stuck on the lift, they are forced to restart the generator to get the vehicle down alerting the Horde. Once the Survivors fought several waves of Infected and Tanks, the truck will eventually land on the ground (After starting the generator a second time) and the Survivors jumped in and drove their way to Riverside.
