-The E3-2000 series was introduced in 12 seven-car trains from December 2008 to April 2010. The headlight shape was changed from the E3-1000 series, and it replaced the 400 series that had been in use since the opening of the Yamagata Shinkansen. In conjunction with the Yamagata Destination Campaign in 2015, a color change was implemented in April 2014 to improve the appeal of the Yamagata Shinkansen.
-The E3-2000 series, which is active as the main vehicle of the Yamagata Shinkansen along with its successor, the E8 series, will be reproduced in the new Yamagata Shinkansen "Tsubasa" paint color. Together with the <10-1969~1971 E5 Series Shinkansen "Hayabusa"> and <10-1967/1968 H5 Series Hokkaido Shinkansen "Hayabusa"> scheduled for release in February 2025, you can recreate the coupled driving scene seen between Tokyo and Fukushima just like the real thing.
