In the depot. The first thing you'd have done is cleared the running
tracks.

Without traction power?

Can you explain why the many references to battery locos have escaped your
attention?

Not much use in using battery loco's or any other type of loco's if you have
passenger trains on the main line that cannot move because of no power being
available. How long will it take for a small number of battery loco's to
drag thesse abandond trains out of the way?

And who would clear the rolling stock, precisely? The Royal Household?

That would have been done long before, when the lines were shut to the
public.

How?
