Prototype Information:
The 211 Series was introduced in 1986, during the final years of
JNR and into the early JR era. The 0 and 2000 series units were assigned
to the Tokaido Main Line, while the 1000 and 3000 series served the
Takasaki and Utsunomiya Lines. In 2013, many 211 Series units were transferred
to the Nagano area, the 0 and 2000 series sets were shortened to 6 cars,
and 1000 and 3000 series to 3 cars. They were upgraded with single-arm
pantographs and cold-weather equipment and now run on the Chuo Main
Line, Shinonoi Line, Oito Line, and Iida Line, serving as key commuter
trains in the region.
This renewed release brings the Nagano 211 Series to life! The 6-car
set features 0 series cars with semi-cross seats and curtain-style destination
signs, while the 3-car set models the 3000 series with long seats and
LED signs. Operate them separately or combine two 3-car sets for a realistic
6-car formation.
