Taken at Higashi-Jūjō in July 2002.
At the time, JR East was prioritizing the replacement of trains from the former JNR era with newly built rolling stock.
The E231 series was being manufactured at the company’s own factory and transported to Tokyo.
This photo captures a shipment of Yamanote Line train cars, led by an electric locomotive that had crossed the Jōetsu mountain range and traversed the Kantō Plain.
Although the Yamanote Line’s train yard is located in Ōsaki, these delivery runs would first enter the Tamachi yard. The train cars were then transferred to Ōsaki the following day under their own power—a routine that was repeated with each new delivery.
