Description
●The first 101 series was introduced in 1969 when the Seibu Chichibu Line opened, as a vehicle with high power and high braking performance for mountain routes. A total of 278 cars were manufactured, and when they were introduced, they were non-air-conditioned vehicles with only 4 cars, but later they were air-conditioned and some of the cars were 6-car through trains. They were widely used on Seibu's lines except for the Seibu Yurakucho Line and Yamaguchi Line, and were a central model of Seibu Railway, operating in formations of up to 10 cars, but were retired in 2010 and are currently preserved at Yokose Depot.
◆The 101 series, which supported passenger transportation on the Seibu Chichibu Line, which is celebrating its 55th anniversary since its opening, is now available. The warm gray around the side windows has been abolished, and the 6-car formation is now available as a product. You can enjoy the scenery of the old Seibu Railway lines together with the 10-1359 Seibu Railway 5000 Series <Red Arrow> and 10-431 Seibu E851 Cement Train, which are scheduled for release at the same time.
