The Chiba New Town Railway 9200 series (千葉ニュータウン鉄道9200形?) is a commuter electric multiple unit (EMU) train type owned by the third sector railway company Chiba New Town Railway and operated by the Hokuso Railway on the Hokuso Line in Japan since 1 March 2013.[1]

Design

The design is based on the Keisei 3050 series, and is similar to the Hokuso 7500 series and Shin-Keisei N800 series trains also based on the same design.[2]

Formation

The eight-car set is formed as shown below, with six motored (M) cars and two trailer (T) cars.[1]

The "M1" cars each have two PT7131-B single-arm pantographs, and the "M" car has one.[1]

Interior

The interior design is virtually identical to the Hokuso 7500 series, with passenger accommodation consisting of longitudinal bench seating throughout, although whereas the Hokuso 7500 series has three LED scrolling passenger information display units per car, the 9200 series has six 15-inch LCD screens per car, like the Keisei 3050 series, located above each doorway.[1]

History

The first set, 9201, was delivered to the Hokuso Line depot at Inba from the Nippon Sharyo factory in Toyokawa, Aichi in February 2013.[3] It entered revenue service from 1 March 2013.[4]
