Re : Location
Having a car barn near the middle of a streetcar line makes sense because it shortens the start-up / shut-down runs. I live near a city that built a car barn on the east side of town. This got them space for fleet growth and shortened the run out to the terminus in the SE corner of the city. The other streetcar / LRV car barns were in the south-central part of town.

Re : Voc-tech classes
Streetcar training can lead one to heavy-vehicle maintenance (trucks, subways, etc.) as well as various other trades (painting, flooring, glazing [windows not pottery], etc.).
