Since this train is a train only for business, it does not pick up a passenger. For a general user, it is a train without an edge. This train was manufactured in 1977. It is because "automatic train control" was introduced in the railroad route of the Tokyo area. Usually, this train carries a vehicle to be fixed to a factory. Moreover, it takes charge of operation of the vehicle which maintains a track. Since this train carries the relief tool, it bears an important role in an emergency.
21 cars were manufactured by the JNR time. Now, all are working by JR. Incidentally, since other two cars were converted from the load conveyance train, the manufacture number is classified into the level of No.50. Since the standard design was carried out, the train similar to others exists(Series 145 etc...).
These belong to the train center of JR at Tokyo area. Have you seen?
