C&O speeder and supply sheds was located near interlocking towers or in yards of small cities and towns and seldom was these sheds in the middle of no where and open to theft since there was thousands of dollars in tools and supplies in each shed.Also the employees would have a safe area to park their cars or in some cases they could walk to work.
IIRC each track gang covered 30 miles and they also used trucks instead of speeders when possible since they could carry more tools and needed supplies.
