Product Description
-- Small windows are a feature! Type 51 modified rapid train [Kaikyo]
[Actual vehicle introduction]
The 50 series general-purpose passenger cars were manufactured between 1977 and 1982 to replace aging, old-style passenger cars across Japan and to utilize idle locomotives.
The body of the train was painted entirely red and it was affectionately known as the "Red Train."
The Kaikyo rapid train began operation with the opening of the Seikan Tunnel in 1988.
The 50 series 5000-type trains were used, which had been repainted in blue with white stripes, were fitted with air conditioning, were made to handle higher speeds, and had modifications to the interior accommodations.
The Kaikyo rapid train was well received as a new tourist route to Hokkaido, and as transportation capacity became strained, the Hokkaido-type OhaFu 51 and the OhaFu 51-5000 and Oha 51-5000, which were modified from the Oha 51, were introduced from 1988 to 1990.
It inherited the structure of the base vehicle, but had small side windows and an inverter cooler, giving it a different appearance from the conventional OhaFu 50-5000 and Oha 50-5000.
Oha 50-5000 was remodeled in 1996, with all four cars converted into carpet cars.
The rapid train [Kaikyo] was replaced by the limited express trains [Super Hakucho] and [Hakucho] in the autumn of 2002, and the 50 series 5000-type trains were scrapped, with some exceptions.
