The prototype, Series E231, made its debut in 2000 as A new standard electric train for JR East to succeed Series 209
and E217. The Series E231 comprises two types, suburban type and commuter train type, which is made with smaller
seating space to carry as many commuters as possible during rush hours.
The scale model is based on Series E231 1000 and over Suburban Type and which was deployed in 2000 to Oyama
Electric Train Zone. Different from that commuter train type, it is furnished with such equipment as toilets
and seat layouts, which are needed for long distance travel. It has also push buttons on passenger car doors
for passengers to open the doors in cold winter, as the E231 Suburban Type is mostly operated in relatively
cold regions. This series trains are being used in increasing numbers on the Tohoku and Takasaki lines and
the Shonan-Shinjuku line, part of Tokaido mainline.
