Product Description

--The E231 series of the Joban Line Rapid Service is back with new car numbers and updated underfloor specifications! Along with the E657 series and Ryutetsu in revival colors.

[Product Introduction]
The E231 series currently in use on the Joban Line was introduced in 2002 to replace the 103 series.
There are 10-car and 5-car configurations in service, with the longest configuration of any E231 series commuter train being 15 cars.
In addition to the line's color blue-green stripe, the body of the train also has a green stripe to prevent passengers from boarding the wrong train for the local line.
Along with the E531 series medium-distance trains, it is in operation on the Joban Rapid Line between Ueno and Toride and on the Narita Line between Abiko and Narita, and since the opening of the Ueno-Tokyo Line in 2015, it has expanded its range of operation even further, now running all the way to Shinagawa.
We will be producing the E231 series, which is in service on the Joban Line and Ueno-Tokyo Line, with its current specifications after the equipment has been updated.
You can enjoy it together with a variety of other products, such as the 10-1843~1846 E531 series Joban Line/Ueno-Tokyo Line, the 10-1875/1876/1878 E657 series (various E653 series revival colors), and the currently popular 10-2003/2004 Tokyo Metro Chiyoda Line 16000 series (first batch).
