History

The 10000 series was originally delivered between 1985 and 1987 in 10 two-car formations.[2] In 1992, the series was reformatted into seven four-car trainsets. This was done by manufacturing eight trailing cars for four sets and rebuilding the ends of three two-car sets to form the other three four-car sets.[1]

At one point, the gear ratio in the bogies was decreased for possible operation at 120 km/h (75 mph).[3]

In January 2011, it was announced that the 10000 series trainsets will undergo replacement by incoming 12000 series sets.[4]

The first set to be scrapped was 10006 on 25 December 2012.[5] Set 10005 followed suit and underwent scrapping on 7 May 2013.[6] The front end of car 10905 is preserved at the Wakuwaku Train Land railway theme park.[7]
