Product Description
--A single-car train running through the streets of Ube!
[Vehicle Introduction]
- The 123 series was created by modifying surplus baggage cars and other vehicles that became available when Japanese National Railways was privatized and divided in 1987.
- There are various variations, as they differ in their base vehicles and specifications tailored to the railway lines they are deployed on.
- Kumoha 123-5 is a modified version of the baggage train Kumoni 143, and was initially introduced for use on the Hanwa Line (Hagoromo Branch Line).
- A distinctive feature was the irregularly shaped passenger doors, positioned in the same location as the luggage doors of the original vehicle.
- Later, it moved to the Shimonoseki area via the Uno Line, and in 2002, the passenger doors were relocated to be closer to the driver's cab. Furthermore, in 2013, a toilet was installed and one of the passenger compartment windows on the side was sealed.
In recent years, the trains have undergone modifications such as the replacement of air conditioners, removal of ventilators, and a change in paint color to dark yellow. As of 2026, they are still in service on the Ube Line and Onoda Line near Shimonoseki, but with the introduction of the new 227 series 500 series [Kizashi] trains, their future is uncertain.
