Product Description

──The symbol of Kanmon! The stainless steel-bodied EF81-300!

- The EF81 type was introduced in 1968 as an electric locomotive compatible with both DC and 50/60Hz AC, and is used as the standard AC/DC locomotive.
- Four of the 300 series locomotives were introduced with stainless steel bodies for use in the Kanmon Tunnel, and the 303 is still in service within Kyushu today, retaining its unpainted stainless steel body.

[Actual vehicle guide]
- The EF81-300 series, four of which were introduced as locomotives for the Kanmon Tunnel, were characterized by their stainless steel bodies as a measure against salt damage in the Kanmon Tunnel, and the No. 303 locomotive remains unpainted and in service within Kyushu to this day.
- Of the EF81 series, the 400 series was modified from the 0 series to replace the EF30 series used in the Kanmon Tunnel, and multiple-unit overall control was added.
- Currently, along with the 303, 450 and 500 series, it is used to pull freight trains within Kyushu.
- In the future, they are scheduled to be replaced by additional EF510-300 series locomotives.
