■ Product description ■ In the past, a conductor was always connected to a freight train, and the conductor was on duty there. However, the environment was not so good, and it was called "Kankei 泣車" (literally, "cold train"), which was derived from a "slow train". Therefore, in order to improve the working conditions of the conductor, 1168 units of the Yo 8000 series were manufactured between 1974 and 1979. The body was arranged into a two shaft type based on the コキフ 10000 series, which is a container type conductor, and a unit method was adopted to place it on the underframe equivalent to the Yo 6000 series. Compared to previous models, the deck is wider and taller. In addition, a toilet was installed for the first time as a conductor. Most of the units disappeared when the conductor was discontinued in March 1985, but as of 2006, 31 units are on duty.
