The Kumamoto Electric Railway 01 series (熊本電気鉄道01形) is a DC electric multiple unit (EMU) train type operated by the private railway operator Kumamoto Electric Railway in Japan, since 16 March 2015. [1]
The two-car trains were rebuilt from 2015 from former Tokyo Metro 01 series six-car trains, by adding two single-arm pantographs and new KW206 "efWing" carbon-reinforced plastic 1,067 mm (3 ft 6 in) bogies built by Kawasaki Heavy Industries. [1]
As of 1 April 2016 [update] two two-car sets (numbers 35 and 36) are in operation, formed as follows with one motored car ("Mc") and one non-powered trailer car ("Tc"). [1] [2]
Designation | Mc | Tc |
---|---|---|
Numbering | 01-13x | 01-63x |
Weight (t) | 32.0 | 26.8 |
Capacity (total/seated) | 102/32 | 101/36 |
The Mc cars have two single-arm pantographs. [2]
Passenger accommodation consists of longitudinal bench seating. [1]
Former Tokyo Metro 01 series driving cars 01-136 and 01-636 were sold to the Kumamoto Electric Railway in February 2015. [3] The modified two-car set entered service on 16 March 2015. [1] Two more cars, 01-135 and 01-635, were acquired during fiscal 2015. [4]
