Product Description

--A royal ride! The luxurious Saha 1801 ordinary car of the 100 series!

[Vehicle Introduction]
The Izu Kyuko Line, which connects Ito and Izukyu-Shimoda, is a railway that opened in December 1961. As a tourist route in eastern Izu, it introduced the 100 series trains, which are equipped with high-grade passenger facilities.
In addition to standard cars with box seats, the fleet included a variety of vehicles such as half-first-class cars and full-first-class cars (later Green Cars), and at one point even dining cars. These could be combined to create flexible formations ranging from single cars to trains of up to 10 cars.
In 1987, in response to requests for even more luxury on tourist trains, the Salo 1801 [Royal Box] was created by modifying the Saha 184 (formerly Salo 184).
The passenger doors were moved to the center of the vehicle, and the interior was fitted with single and double-seater sofas and counters, large windows, Western-style toilets, and other luxurious features, making it a special vehicle with dedicated staff on board.
The body color scheme follows that of the conventional 100 series, but the upper half is white and the stripe below the windows is gold to differentiate it.
The popularity of this train led to the later addition of "Royal Box" cars to all 2100 series "Resort 21" trains.
Following the shift from the 100 series to the 2100 series as the mainstream for tourist trains, in 1999, Salo 1801 was reclassified as a regular passenger car while retaining its original interior, and its model number was changed to Saha 1801.
At this time, the body color was changed, just like with other 100 series trains.
It was subsequently used as an intermediate car in the 100 series, but its operation ended in 2002.
