- No. 1749 and No. 1758, which have been repainted in the metropolitan area colors, have had their front typhoons removed, just like the other cars assigned to Kushiro, and have continued to be in service in that form even after being transferred to Asahikawa.
[Actual vehicle guide]
- The Kiha 40-1700 series is a replacement for the Kiha 40-100 series for Hokkaido, which was converted to the 700 series for one-man operation as a life-extending measure, and construction has been carried out in stages since 2003.
- In April 2010, 1749 and 1758 belonging to the Kushiro Transport Depot were painted in metropolitan area colors, attracting a lot of attention.
- The typhoons on the front of the Kiha 40 series trains assigned to Kushiro have been removed, and the metropolitan area colours have also been removed, giving the front a cleaner look.
- Both cars were moved from Kushiro to Asahikawa, and are currently in service on the Sekihoku and Nemuro lines.
[Actual vehicle guide (details)]
- The Kiha 40 series is a general-purpose diesel car that was introduced in 1977 as a successor to the Kiha 10 series. The Kiha 40-100 series, designed for extremely cold regions, was converted to a one-man operation and became the Kiha 40-700 series. Along with repairs to various parts, the engine and transmission were updated, and the rooftop water tank was moved inside the car, and the original car number was increased by 1000 to the 1700 series.
- In April 2010, two of the Kiha 40 cars belonging to the Kushiro Transport Rolling Stock Depot, No. 1749 and No. 1758, were repainted in the vermilion metropolitan area color. The typhoons on the front of the Kiha 40 cars belonging to Kushiro were removed, and the metropolitan area color cars were also removed, giving them a cleaner front. With the timetable change in March 2022, the Kiha 40 series in the Kushiro area will be retired with the introduction of the successor car, the H100 series, and some cars, including No. 1749 and No. 1758, have been transferred to the Asahikawa area and are currently in service.
