Product Description
In the 1960s, Japanese National Railways developed the 111, 113 and 115 series electric trains, which were three-door, semi-cross-seat DC suburban trains connecting urban areas and the suburbs.
The 115 series was designed to be strong on slopes and in cold climates, and was deployed widely.
Even after 2010, they could still be seen running in various places, but in recent years they have been rapidly retired, and currently only those remaining in the Okayama and Shimonoseki areas of JR West and on the Shinano Railway.
This magazine provides a detailed introduction to the 115 series, whose developments are attracting attention from rail fans.
The book is packed with content, including a detailed explanation of the mechanism, newly taken photos of the 115 series S3 train (Shonan color) belonging to the Shinano Railway, and an explanation of the model and serial number.
