Product Description
──The diesel car Kiha 261 series, which is active in the northern lands
[Actual vehicle guide]
- The Kiha 261 series 1000 is a Hokkaido express diesel car that was introduced in 2006 to replace the Kiha 183 series that was used on the Tokachi express train.
- The previous Kiha 261 series 0-series train has a more streamlined front shape and no longer has the beads seen on the stainless steel body, giving it a smarter appearance.
- It was first used on the limited express train [Super Tokachi] between Sapporo and Obihiro, and its introduction was discontinued for a time, but it was manufactured again to increase the frequency of other limited express trains or to replace them. It is currently used on the limited express train [Hokuto] between Hakodate and Sapporo, and the limited express [Ozora] between Sapporo and Kushiro, and has grown into a main limited express train with a total of more than 150 cars.
- Initially, the design was based on blue, similar to the 0 series, with a green vertical stripe and a logo on the side of the front head, but since 2015, it has been changed to a new design with a white base, purple stripe, and yellow on the front through door, and the 5th series cars, which were the last to appear with a blue base, have also been gradually repainted with the new paint.
- The 5th series of cars, which were introduced in preparation for the opening of the Hokkaido Shinkansen and will be used on the Super Hokuto express trains, are the group that will still have the front display as of 2024, and are assigned to Hakodate and Sapporo and are used on the Hokuto, Tokachi, and Ozora express trains.
[point]
- The remaining train markings on the front of the 5th series are in the form of a curtain, and the Hokuto train markings are already attached, while the Super Hokuto, Tokachi, Super Tokachi, and Ozora trains come with pre-printed parts.
