The Keihan 5000 series (京阪5000系, Keihan 5000-kei) was an electric multiple unit (EMU) commuter train type operated by the private railway operator Keihan Electric Railway in Japan from 1970 until September 2021. [2]
The fleet consisted of seven seven-car sets (5551 to 5557), formed as follows with four motored cars and three non-powered trailer cars. [3]

Each of the four motored ("M") cars has one scissors-type pantograph. [3] The "M1" car is designated as a mildly air-conditioned car. [3]
The T2 and M3 cars have a driving compartment at one end for depot shunting use, although driving controls have been removed from the two cars each in sets 5551 and 5552. [3]
Passenger accommodation consists of longitudinal bench seating throughout. [2]
First introduced in 1970, a total of 50 vehicles were built by 1980, including one car built in 1980 to replace a car damaged in a level crossing accident. [2]
The last 5000 series train made its final run on September 4, 2021, following a postponement from June 1, 2021, due to a review of train operations. [4]
