JNR Suuni 72-28 (grape color No. 1) Miyahara Passenger Car Depot
Information
During the period of material shortages immediately following the Pacific War, many "war-damaged restoration cars" were repaired and restored after being damaged in air raids and other incidents. Among these, the group restored as JNR passenger cars were numbered in the 70s. Based on transportation requirements, these cars featured commuter train-like bodies with three doors on each side, making them valuable assets. The base cars were diverse, and models were primarily classified by weight and use. This resulted in a remarkable variety of configurations within the same model, reflecting differences in the extent of damage. War-damaged restoration cars were retired from the front line as new vehicles were built, but in the 1950s, they were gradually repurposed to replace wooden service cars. Suuni 72-28 was born from the conversion of Oha 71-68 at Tsuchizaki Works in February 1954. Around 1955, it was stationed at Kyoto Passenger Car Depot, and by 1958, it was stationed at Miyahara Passenger Car Depot. Records show it being attached to passenger trains on the San'in Main Line and Obama Line. It was discontinued at the end of March 1966.
