Product Description
--The HO gauge model is now available in its appearance from the JNR era around 1985, when the Kitaguni express train was converted to the 583 series!
[Actual vehicle guide]
The 583 series was introduced in 1968 as a 50/60Hz AC compatible version of the 581 series, which was originally manufactured as a daytime and nighttime express train, operating as an express train during the day and a sleeper express train at night, in order to cope with the pressure on depots and operations caused by the increase in trains.
The front end of the high cab was equipped with a through door that allowed passengers to move between the cars when the trains were coupled, and its outstanding design influenced the front end shape of later express trains.
The six cars of the N1 and N2 trains, which were transferred from Aomori to Sendai, were repaired with a focus on form, such as adding grooves to the buried front through doors and the former division of the side emergency exits, and then reverted to the characteristic gray underfloor of the Koriyama repaired cars, and were used on special trains and revival trains, becoming popular wherever they went as the last remaining 583 series.
In 1985, the Osaka-Niigata express Kitaguni was operated by the 583 series belonging to the Mukomachi Depot, and the A-class sleeping cars that were not assigned to this model were replaced by the Salone 581, which was a modified version of the Sahane 581. At the beginning of operation, like other vehicles, the small window for the middle berth on the side was filled in, but the exterior paint was the same as other cars, with a cream and blue color scheme.
