20000 series

[edit]

A total of 104 vehicles[4] (13 eight-car sets, numbered 21801 to 21813) were built to replace the ageing 2000 series trains on inter-running services between the Tobu Skytree Line and the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line in Tokyo, entering service on 25 March 1988. The body design uses a new lightweight corrugated stainless steel construction.[4] These trains use the same AFE (Automatic Field Excite) chopper control as the earlier Tobu 9000 series trains and bolsterless bogies.[5]

Formation

[edit]

Trains are formed as follows, with six motored ("M") cars and two non-powered driving trailer ("Tc") cars.[3]

Designation Tc1 M1 M2 M1 M3 M1 M4 Tc2
Numbering 21800 22800 23800 24800 25800 26800 27800 28800

The M1 cars are each fitted with one scissors type pantograph.[3]

20050 series

[edit]
20050 series set 21856 in June 2018

A total of 64 vehicles[4] (8 eight-car sets, numbered 21851 to 21858) were introduced on 29 December 1992 on Tobu Isesaki Line (present-day Tobu Skytree Line) and Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line inter-running services. These sets feature two five-door cars at each end, and also LED destination indicators.[4] These sets have VVVF control.[1]

[edit]

Trains are formed as follows, with six motored ("M") cars and two non-powered driving trailer ("Tc") cars.[3]

Designation Tc3 M5 M2 M7 M3 M7 M6 Tc4
Numbering 21850 22850 23850 24850 25850 26850 27850 28850

The M5 and M7 cars are each fitted with one scissors type pantograph.[3]

Interior

[edit]

Passenger accommodation consists of longitudinal bench seating throughout, with seats for three persons between each pair of doors in the five-door cars.[5] Seat width is 440 mm (17 in) per person for the three-person bench seats in five-door cars and 450 mm (18 in) per person for the ten-person bench seats in three-door cars.[5] As with the 9050 series EMUs introduced around the same time, these sets featured LCD passenger information screens above the doorways, but these were subsequently removed.[5]

20070 series

[edit]
20070 series set 21872 in April 2008

These are eight-car sets that were introduced from 25 March 1997 to cope with an increased service frequency, of which 24 vehicles (three eight-car sets, numbered 21871 to 21873) were built.[4] These sets feature three-door cars throughout, and also LED destination indicators.[4] These sets have VVVF control.[1]

The 20400 series are four-car sets for Tobu Nikko Line and Utsunomiya Line operation north of Minami-Kurihashi Station.[2] The first trains entered revenue service on 3 September 2018.[6]

Formation

[edit]

Trains are formed as follows, with two motored cars and two non-powered trailer cars.[2] Car 1 ("Tc2") and 4 ("Tc1") are former 20000 series cars built by Alna Koki in 1988, and cars 2 ("M2") and 3 ("M1") are former 20070 series cars built by Tokyu Car in 1997.[2] Some sets will incorporate former 20050 series cars, which will be converted from five doors to three doors per side.[2]

Designation Tc2 M2 M1 Tc1
Numbering 24400 23400 22400 21400

The M1 car is fitted with two single-arm pantographs.[2]

Withdrawal and refurbishment

[edit]

The 20000 series trains began to be replaced by new 70000 series trains from 7 July 2017.[7] The first sets to be withdrawn, sets 21813 and 21809, were removed for scrapping in July 2017.[8] Some of the 20000 series trains are also refurbished as 20400 series to replace 8000 series trains.[6]

The five-door 20000 series trains are being withdrawn so that platform doors can be installed on Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line stations.

Transferred vehicles

[edit]

20000 series cars are scheduled to be transferred to Alpico Kotsu for use on the Kamikōchi Line, where they will replace life-expired former Keio 3000 series trains.[9]
