125 series
The 125 series (125系, 125-kei) is a single-car DC electric multiple unit (EMU) train type operated by West Japan Railway Company (JR-West) on local services in Japan since March 2003.
The 125 series design is based on the 223-2000 series EMU design, with stainless bodies and steel front ends.
The cars have two pairs of sliding doors on each side, with provision for a third set of doors in the centre.
The second-batch cars (KuMoHa 125-9–12) delivered in 2003 differ from the earlier batch by having enlarged front-end skirts and darker grey tinted windows.
The 125 series is used on wanman driver-only operation services, primarily on the Obama Line and Kakogawa Line.
Up to five single cars can be operated together as a multiple car set.
Cars KuMoHa 125-7/8/11/12 are equipped with a second de-icing pantograph.
Passenger accommodation consists of longitudinal bench seating at the ends, and 2+2 abreast transverse reversible seating in the centre of the cars. The first two batches of cars (KuMoHa 125-1–12) were delivered with 1+2 abreast seating, but this was increased to 2+2 seating during 2003 and 2004.
