Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox train

The Шаблон:Nihongo is a Japanese dual-voltage (1,500 V DC and 20 kV AC 50 Hz) electric multiple unit (EMU) train type introduced by Japanese National Railways (JNR) on express services in 1965 and later operated by East Japan Railway Company (JR East), West Japan Railway Company (JR-West), and Kyushu Railway Company (JR Kyushu).[1]

The last sets operated by JR-West were withdrawn in 2015. However, 2 cars remain in service as the driving car of a mixed 413/455 series set until they resold to the private railway operator in 2021 hence ended their overall service by JR West.

Design

Intended for use in the Tohoku region, the basic design and appearance was identical to the 475 series dual-voltage (1,500 V DC and 20 kV AC 60 Hz) EMUs introduced around the same time in Kyushu, and similar to the earlier 453 and 473 series EMUs.[2] The first units built were not equipped with air-conditioning, except for the SaRo 455 "Green" (first class) cars.[2]

Variants

  • 455-0 series
  • 455-200 series
  • 455-300 series
  • 455-400 series
  • 455-500 series
  • 455-600 series
  • 455-700 series

455-0 series

These were the 455 series cars built from new between 1965 and 1971.[3][2]

  • KuHa 455-1 – 75, driving trailer cars
  • KuMoHa 455-1 – 51, driving motor cars
  • KuRoHa 455–1, composite driving trailer converted from KuHa 455–44 with three rows of "Green" (first class) seats[1]
  • MoHa 454-1 – 51, intermediate motor cars, with pantograph
  • SaHa 455-1 – 8, intermediate trailer cars (built for use in 457 series sets)[2]
  • SaRo 455-1 – 45, "Green" (first class) trailer cars
  • SaHaShi 455-1 – 26, buffet cars

With the reduction in express services and gradual reassignment of 455 series sets to local services, a number of cab cars were subsequently rebuilt from intermediate cars or other EMU types from 1975 to allow shorter sets to be formed.[2]

  • KuHa 455-301 – 320: Rebuilt in 1984 from 165 series EMU KuHa 165 driving cars.[1][3]

455-500 series

  • KuHa 455-501 – 505: Rebuilt in 1983 from 165 series EMU SaHa 165 intermediate trailer cars.[1][3]

455-600 series

  • KuHa 455-601 – 605: Rebuilt in 1984 from 455 series EMU SaRo 455 intermediate "Green" trailer cars.[1][3]
  • KuHa 455-606 – 611: Rebuilt from 165 series EMU SaRo 165 intermediate "Green" trailer cars.[1]

455-700 series

History

Файл:455 Matsushima.jpg
A 455 series formation on a Matsushima express service

The 455 series trains were first introduced from the start of the 1 October 1965 revised timetable, operating on Iwate and Kitakami express services between Шаблон:STN in Tokyo and Шаблон:STN in the north-east of Japan, and also on Matsushima services between Ueno and Шаблон:STN.[2]

From 1 July 1967, 455 series trains were introduced on new Bandai express services operating on the Banetsu West Line.[2] From 1 October 1968, with the completion of AC electrification of the route between Шаблон:STN and Sendai via the Ou Main Line and Senzan Line, 455 series trains were introduced on Zaō services operating between Ueno and Yamagata.[2]

From the late 1960s, JNR was beginning to install air-conditioning on its trains, and 455 series cars built from June 1968 were designed to allow air-conditioning to be added easily at a later date. Air-conditioning was subsequently retrofitted between 1969 and 1975.[2]

With the opening of the Tohoku Shinkansen, the number of express services in the region were cut back from the start of the 15 November 1982 timetable revision, and discontinued by March 1985. JR East 455 series sets were reassigned to local services, and withdrawn by 2008.[2]
