EF57



Prototype Information:

The legendary EF57 returns! First introduced in 1940, this DC electric locomotive was used for passenger service, representing pre-war JNR, hauling icons like the "Tsubame“. It later served on the Tohoku Main Line with express trains like "Hakkoda.“Among the class, the No. 1 unit stands out with its unique square body, following the design lineage of the second production group of the EF56 (units 8–12), and centrally placed pantographs.

A must-have for vintage JNR fans!
