• <92400> Series183 Limited Express Train Tanba (4 Car Set)
The Series 183 used for [Maizuru] and [Tanba] is an odd series that had removed the AC equipment from the Series 485 and customized for DC.
The actual car is scheduled to be changed to a decent car soon, but why not an odd car for your collection?
• <92975> [Limited Edition] Series183 Limited Express Train Fukuchiyama Train District
And this here is a 7-car set reproducing the combined formation that splits, consisting of [Tanba] and [Maizuru]. The series 183 of Fukuchiyama Region, but a rare customized car
Type Kuha 183 No.801 had been included in this set.

This Sobu Line specification is to reproduce its present appearance,

• <92980> [Limited Edition] J.R. Series 209-500 Keihintohoku Line (10-Car Set)
The main trains on the Keihin Tohoku Line are the Series 209 No.0, but there are also the small group of No.500 that had been moved from the Sobu Line.
Unlike the No.0, the car exterior has slightly widened, allowing slightly more passengers.
It felt a little roomier when the No.500 came during the morning rush, back in the days.
This is a limited edition 10-car set reproducing the appearance of its days in the Keihin Tohoku Line.

presently left in the Bousou District, how nice.
