Tomix 98717 N E231-500 Commuter Train Yamanote Line Addon set 5cars

The E231-500 series was introduced in 2002 for the Yamanote Line.

Two six-door cars were coupled in a train, but they were replaced with four-door cars by 2017 to accommodate movable platform gates.

After the successor E235 series was introduced in 2017, they were gradually transferred to local trains on the Chuo and Sobu lines, and ceased operation on the Yamanote Line in January 2020.
