Product Description
--Giant whales roaming the underground! The rust-proof steel 3000 series!
[Vehicle Introduction]
The 3000 series was introduced in 1961 with the opening of the Hibiya Line of the Tokyo Metro.
Based on the [Line 2 Vehicle Specifications] for through service with the Tobu Line and Tokyu Line, this 18-meter-long, three-door car was the first stainless steel car for the Teito Rapid Transit Authority (now Tokyo Metro), and its rounded front end later became affectionately known as the "Sperm Whale" by fans.
Initially, the train consisted of two cars, but to increase transport capacity, it was changed to four cars, then six cars, and since 1971, it has been an eight-car train.
Due to the long manufacturing period, there were variations in the position of the front destination display, the size of the side door windows, the bogies, and the ventilators.
Since the 1980s, some of the early manufactured vehicles have undergone refurbishment, with the side doors being replaced from large-window type to small-window type, and the ventilators being replaced from octagonal to square type.
In addition, there were some vehicles whose bogies were replaced with FS510 bogies, separate from the repair work.
With the introduction of its successor, the 03 series, the trains began to be retired in 1989, and all of them were retired after a farewell run in 1994.
Some of the vehicles were transferred to other companies, but they have already been retired.
