The 419 series (419系, 419-kei) was an electric multiple unit (EMU) train type introduced in 1985 by Japanese National Railways (JNR), and later operated by West Japan Railway Company (JR-West) on local services along the Japan Sea coast of Japan until March 2011. They were converted from former 583 series sleeping car EMUs in the 1980s. [1]
KuMoHa 419 + MoHa 418 + KuHa 418
(MoHa 418 cars each had one PS16 pantograph.) [2]
KuMoHa 419 + MoHa 418 + KuHa 419
(MoHa 418 cars each had one PS16 pantograph.) [2]
The 419 series sets were converted from surplus former 583 series sleeping car EMUs and entered service from the start of the revised timetable in March 1985. [1]
Following the introduction of new 521 series EMUs in late 2006, two sets, D10 and D13, were withdrawn in March 2007. [3] The remaining sets were finally withdrawn on 11 March 2011. [4]
KuHa 418-1 from set D01 was preserved at a locomotive scrapping facility in Takaoka starting in 2012; it was removed from display around November 2021 and subsequently scrapped.[ citation needed]
