Product Description
--Since 1992, the current paint color has been changed to orange and blue stripes. This is a 4+2+2 car set that is fun to reassemble.
[Product Introduction]
The Nankai Electric Railway 6000 series is a 20m-class commuter train for the Koya Line that was introduced in 1962.
A total of 72 cars were manufactured, and 20 are still in active service even now, more than 60 years later.
It was introduced as an all-stainless steel car manufactured by Tokyu Car Corporation (now Japan Transport Engineering Company) in technical cooperation with the US company Budd, which had an unpainted corrugated body, uniquely shaped ventilators, and Pioneer III bogies.
In 1985, the train underwent renovations and air conditioning modifications, and the bogies were replaced, giving the train a unique appearance with a heavy roof lined with distributed air conditioning units, and different bogies for some of the SaHa 6600 cars and the other cars.
Since 1992, blue and orange striped paint has been added, and the vehicle number plate on the side of the lead car near the driver's cab has been changed to a plate with the [NANKAI] logo.
For 57 years since their introduction, they have been in service without a single vehicle being scrapped, but with the introduction of new vehicles, some have been scrapped since 2019.
Twenty carriages remain today, and are used for everything from local trains to rapid express trains, in the same way as newer carriages.
The Nankai Electric Railway 6000 series has been added to KATO's Kansai private railway lineup.
The corrugated body, single-wing doors, and uniquely shaped roof-mounted equipment found in stainless steel cars manufactured during the Showa era are realistically reproduced.
