Tokyo Metro 05 Series Train at Ayase Station
A railyard for Tokyo Metro Chiyoda Line exists in Kita-ayase. When it was built, the area had not been developed well. Tokyo Metro built a station at Kita-ayase, but did not assign ten-car trains to the section. The platform at Kita-ayase was for a three-car train.
Recently, Tokyo Metro finally decided there were enough residents in Kita-ayase. In 2019 March, the platform of the station became long enough for a ten-car train. But it did not mean the retirement of old three-car trains. Half of trains start from Kita-ayase are still three-car trains.
The train in this photo is one of such three-car trains. The platform door is just three-car long here, because ten-car trains do not stop at this platform in Ayase Station.
Number 63 is visible at the driver’s cabin. It is train No.1 of the 05 series at Chiyoda Branch Line. The train is also shown in “Tokyo Metro Chiyoda Line 05 Series Train at Kita-ayase Station.”
