Product Description
──Rising from the damage of war! The resurrected passenger car Suuni 72!
[Actual vehicle introduction]
During the period of material scarcity immediately following the Pacific War, many vehicles that had been damaged in air raids and other disasters were repaired and put back into service as "war damaged restoration cars." Of these, the group that was restored as JNR passenger cars was given model numbers in the 70s and, taking into account transportation conditions, had bodies similar to commuter trains with three doors on each side, and played an important role as a valuable asset.
There were many different base vehicles, and the types were mainly divided according to weight class and use, so it is noteworthy that there was a wide variety of shapes even within the same type, due to differences in the damage caused by the disaster.
The war damage restoration vehicles were retired from frontline service as new vehicles were built, but in the 1950s they were gradually repurposed to replace wooden commercial vehicles.
The Suuni 72-28 was born in February 1954 when the Oha 71-68 was modified at the Tsuchizaki Factory.
Around 1955 it was stationed at Kyoto Passenger Car Depot, and as of 1958 it was stationed at Miyahara Passenger Car Depot.
There are records that show it was attached to passenger trains on the Sanin Main Line and Obama Line.
It was discontinued at the end of March 1966.
