Enoden 700 series

Data (as of 23 May 2026)

History

The 700 series is the latest rolling stock for Enoden. While most new trains in the Greater Tokyo Area only have longitudinal seating to make the carriage more spacious for standing passengers, the 700 series units have a few transverse seating that allows tourists to see the Pacific Ocean by the railway. According to the company, the 700 series requires 49% less energy than 1000 series, which is notorious for being environmentally unfriendly compared to other trains that run the Enoden line.

The first and second units entered into service in April 2026.

Current Operations & Future Prospects

Two units of the 700 series have been in use. More units are due to be introduced in the coming years to replace the 1000 series.
