Product Description
--Optimized for urban transportation! The 813 series with long seats!
[Vehicle Introduction]
The 813 series electric train was introduced by JR Kyushu in 1994 to replace aging JNR-era commuter trains and passenger trains.
The train features a lightweight stainless steel body, three doors on each side to reduce boarding and alighting times, a striking design with the front and passenger doors painted in the company's corporate color red, and decorative lettering affixed to various parts of the body.
The interior of the train has been fitted with reversible cross seats.
The control system employs a VVVF inverter control system, resulting in energy savings.
There were numerous sub-series classifications even at the time of their initial manufacture, including the 2-car 0-series, the 3-car 100-series, the 200-series and 300-series manufactured from 1997 with modified body structures, the 400-series and 500-series intermediate cars manufactured to convert the 0-series into 3-car sets, the 1000-series with a changed position for the powered car, and the 1100-series with enlarged destination displays.
Subsequently, the skirts were enlarged, some rooftop equipment was removed, and further changes such as the formation of fixed train sets and alteration of the seating layout resulted in an increase in the number of sub-series classifications.
As of 2026, 246 813 series cars are coupled with other 813 series cars or other series to form long trains, playing a leading role in commuter and school transport, mainly in the Fukuoka metropolitan area.
Since 2023, the conversion of the interior of the train cars to long seats, excluding the ends of the cars, has been implemented in stages and is still ongoing as of 2026.
The trains that underwent this modification had 2000 added to their car numbers.
The R2001 train set was originally the top-numbered 813 series 0-series train set, with a 400-series car sandwiched in between to create a three-car train. Visually, it is characterized by differences in the number of window frames and roof ribs between the two leading cars and the intermediate car.
The train underwent modifications to convert it to long seats in 2025, and its serial number was changed.

Micro Ace's suburban train series is further expanded. This is a variation product based on A6290 (released in March 2012).
We are producing a model of the R2001 train set of the 813 series, which operates on Kyushu's main artery, and which was converted to long seats in the autumn of 2025.
In accordance with the actual train, the door numbers have been omitted from the passenger doors. The interior has been reproduced with cross seats at the ends of the car and long seats elsewhere.
The 2000 series + 2400 series is characterized by the difference in body design between the lead car and the intermediate cars.
- Leading car (2000 series): Originally the 0 series, but with many ribs on the sides and fewer ribs on the roof.
- Intermediate cars (2400 series): Originally 400 series, with fewer ribs on the sides and more ribs on the roof.
To match the actual train, the instrument transformer near the pantograph of Kuha 813 was removed.
A new skirt specifically designed for dummy couplers with a narrow front opening has been created. A skirt with a wider opening is also included to allow for coupler replacement.
Motorized, with working headlights and taillights. The motorized car does not have rubber tires, considering coupled operation.
You can enjoy seeing the 813 series trains individually or in multiple formations, as well as seeing them alongside the 811 series, 817 series, 821 series, and other train types.
*Some parts may differ from the actual vehicle due to shared parts.
