  1. um to the metro stop like all of the busses go to the check in stops when they are done


  2. Since you don't mention which MRT you are talking about, one can only give a general answer. The trains get stored in storage sidings, depots, yards, sheds, whatever you want to call them in whatever language you use in whatever country you're talking about. Basically a large set of parallel tracks where the trains can get cleaned and serviced.

  3. They all go to 'The Car Barn'.

  4. In the UK, when a train has finished its turn of duty for the day, it is kept in what is generally termed, 'stabling', which means basically parking it wherever it is safe and convenient to do so.

    This might be in a siding, a platform road not currently being used for passenger traffic, or a depot*.

    The stabling is arranged so it can enter its next turn of duty as quickly and easily as possible.

    *The word 'depot' seems to be going out of fashion nowadays and trains are more likely to head off to a 'Train Care Centre' at the end of the day (I kid you not - a depot bearing this very title was opened a few years ago by one train company).

    Presumably in addition to routine maintenance, cleaning and refuelling they also get stress counselling, massage, etc. :-)
