Product Description

── Redesigned front shape. We will commercialize a new tertiary vehicle that can be freely combined with conventional vehicles.

[Product introduction]
――We will commercialize the 521 series tertiary type, which is active in the Hokuriku region and features a diagonally arranged light shape.
――The 521 series 3rd car is a group newly built after 2013, and features a driver's cab with a shock absorbing structure and a slanted light arrangement that is different from the conventional formation.
――All trains belong to the Kanazawa Car Maintenance Center, and are operated in 6-car trains, which are a combination of 2 cars and a maximum of 3 trains, in common with the conventional trains between Tsuruga and Kanazawa on the Hokuriku Main Line.
