Description

The 315 series is JR Central's commuter train, created to replace the 211 series manufactured around the time of the JR privatization. It is the first model to adopt the company's next-generation brand, "N-QUALIS." The 0 series, an 8-car through train, began operation on the Chuo Main Line (between Nagoya and Nakatsugawa) in March 2022. The 3000 series, which subsequently appeared as a 4-car group, began operating on the Kansai Main Line (between Nagoya and Kameyama) in June 2023, on the Taketoyo Line and the Tokaido Main Line (between Obu and Ogaki) in March 2024, and in the Shizuoka area of ​​the Tokaido Main Line in June 2024, expanding its scope of use. The 3000 series is equipped with side-mounted cameras in anticipation of single-man operation with 4-car 315 series trains, and further expansion is planned.

This is the first production version of the 315 series, the new flagship train for the Tokai region. It accurately recreates an image that is different from previous JR Central trains. You can enjoy various scenes, such as coupling with various 313 series trains currently on sale, or passing each other.
