Product Description
■ The Tokaido Main Line, which is relatively flat, also had a difficult place called Sekigahara crossing. The steepest gradient of 10 ‰ continues for 6 km between Ogaki and Sekigahara. The Model EH10 was developed in 1954 to be able to tow a freight train of 1200 tons in this difficult place in time with the Maibara electrification of the Tokaido Main Line in 1955. It has a 2-body structure with 8 axles and a power of 2, 530 kw. It has the name of "Mammoth Locomotive". On the other hand, the front bogie has been eliminated and all axles drive has been realized. 64 cars were produced and were used on the Tokaido and Sanyo Main Line until 1982. Since around 1976, the Model No. 9 was replaced with the Model PS15 with the lower cross-shaped Model PS22 due to the exhaustion of spare parts and unification of the pantograph type. In addition, motors are installed on both the 1st and 2nd sides. All axles drive is realized just like the real thing with a double motor, and powerful traction force can be enjoyed.
■ Features of the product
