Kintetsu 1400 series set #1407 in 2018
The Kintetsu 1400 series (近鉄1400系, Kintetsu 1400-kei) is a commuter electric multiple unit (EMU) train type operated by the private railway operator Kintetsu Railway since 1981 on many of its commuter lines in the Kansai area of Japan.
Design
First introduced in 1984, the design is based on the earlier Kintetsu3000 series commuter train, also manufactured by Kinki Sharyo.
All trains are equipped with longitudinal seating and automatic announcements in both Japanese and English. All trainsets run on standard gauge 1,435 mm (4 ft 8+1⁄2 in), except for the 6600 series which run on 1,067 mm (3 ft 6 in) gauge on the Minami Osaka Line.
Variants
1200 series (2nd Generation): 4-car sets primarily used on the Nagoya Line
The 1200 series is the final variant in the 1400 series family. Originally, 11 four-car sets were built in 1982, but in 1983, all but one of the sets were converted into the 1201 series.[2]
The 1201 series are former 1200 series sets that were converted to ten 2-car sets and re-fitted for wanman (driver-only) operation.[2] Only one set, the one listed above remained a 1200 series.
