EF58 150 is a vehicle currently stored and exhibited at the Kyoto Railway Museum.

It was manufactured at Toshiba Fuchu Factory in March 1958, and continued to be used for a long time from Miyahara Locomotive Depot and Miyahara Driving Station (now Miyahara General Driving Station) to pull express trains on the main line as it was electrified from the Tokaido Main Line to the Sanyo Main Line. It was scrapped in 1986, but was reinstated the following year, repainted solid brown, and used again to pull special trains, before being retired in 2011.

When it was stored at the Kyoto Railway Museum, the body color was changed from brown to the standard color (blue).
