The EF510-300 series is an AC/DC electric locomotive introduced for JR Freight services in Kyushu, replacing older ED76 and EF81 locomotives on freight trains. Based on the EF510-0 series used in Honshu, the 300 series was modified for Kyushu ground facilities and includes AC regenerative braking to reduce power consumption as part of JR Freight's long-term environmental goals.

This HO model represents EF510-304 of Moji Locomotive Depot, a new-generation locomotive for Kyushu freight services and a strong choice for hauling a variety of modern freight stock.
