information
The E231-800 series was introduced in 2003 as a special carriage for the Chuo and Sobu lines on the Tokyo Metro Tozai Line.
This carriage is based on the 209-1000 series, but there are many differences from the 209-1000 series, such as a different placement of the door cocks and the installation of external speakers, and these small differences are one of the highlights of this carriage.
Another major feature is that the line color is not the canary yellow that represents the Chuo and Sobu lines, but rather cerulean blue with indigo blue, the line color of the Tokyo Metro Tozai Line, which the carriage runs on, to prevent passengers from boarding the wrong train.
Currently, the control equipment of this carriage has been updated and the lights replaced with LEDs, and seven formations are in service between Mitaka/Nakano and Nishi-Funabashi/Tsudanuma via the Tokyo Metro Tozai Line.
