Kumoya-143 Series and Kumoya-193 Series Displayed at JR Tokyo Synthesis Vehicle Center

These were displayed when JR Tokyo Synthesis Vehicle Center was opened to the public in 2012 August. The train with a flat front is Kumoya-143 series, and the other is Kumoya-193 series.

 

“Kumoya” is a JR word which means the car has a motormans seat, a motor and does not used for passenger service. Kumoya-143 series is used as a locomotive. Kumoya-193 series is used for overhead power line inspection.

 

Accoding to the web, Kumoya-193 was dismantled in 2013 June. So, we cannot see the car anymore.
