Product Description

──My final resting place is the land of Aboshi! The fate of the wandering Saha 111!

[Actual vehicle introduction]
The 113 series is a DC commuter train that was introduced in 1963 as an enhanced version of the 111 series that was introduced in 1962.
Strictly speaking, only electric cars existed, and the leading and trailing cars were the 111 series, with specifications and structures changed, but a total of 2,943 cars were manufactured by 1982, and for many years they were seen in service mainly on flat tracks in DC electrified sections across the country.
As production of the 111 series electric cars was discontinued after only 64 units were produced, it is customary for all trains other than the narrowly defined 111 series electric cars to be referred to in the broader sense as the 113 series.
The 113 series electric trains required for the electrified opening of the Fukuchiyama Line in 1986 were to be supplied by converting and modifying existing cars, taking into account the financial situation of the Japanese National Railways at the time.The base cars selected for the conversion were mainly the early-manufactured 113 series from various regions.
Since the 113 series, originally designed for warm climates, was converted for use in cold climates, the passenger doors were semi-automated and equipped with handles, and the body color was changed to what is known as the "Fukuchiyama color," which is yellow No. 5 with a blue No. 20 stripe, and the train was newly classified as the 800 series.
The 113 series 800 series was chosen as the base vehicle for the new AC/DC electric trains that were needed when the Nanao Line was electrified, and the lineup became complex, with four-car and two-car formations being rearranged into three-car formations depending on the supply and demand of each type of vehicle.
The most outstanding of these is SaHa 111-5801, which is one of the 800 series trains that was converted into a three-car formation. MoHa 113-818, which had lost its partner in an accident, was stripped of its electrical equipment and repurposed for use on the Tokaido and Sanyo Main Lines. With the passenger door semi-automation removed, the handles were removed, the car was repainted in Shonan colors, and the brake lever ratio was changed to make it compatible with high speeds, resulting in the birth of the 5800 series, the only SaHa car equipped with a Groben.
Until his retirement in 2004, many fans recorded him traveling freely from Maibara in the north to Ako in Banshu in the west, still equipped with a glove-type ventilator with a snow-resistant cover that tells the story of his origins.
