Description
●The 221 series is a DC suburban train for the Tokaido Main Line "New Rapid Service" that appeared in 1989, and is the first vehicle newly designed and manufactured by JR West. Currently, it is active in a wide range of areas, including the Kansai Main Line (Yamatoji Line) system, the Osaka Loop Line, the Nara Line, the San'in Main Line (Sagano Line), the Kusatsu Line, and the Kosei Line. Since 2013, the structure has been improved (renewed), and the front end is now equipped with a fall prevention hood, and the headlights have become HID lights + fog lights.
◆From this product, the lightning arrester on the roof will be changed to an updated form, and the contents of the destination display stickers will be updated. In addition, a slotless motor will be adopted for the power source. Due to these changes, the part number of the basic set and the JAN code and price of each product will change.
