The prototype, EF65-1000 made its debut in 1969 and pulled various cars ranging from blue (sleeper) trains to
freight cars in DC electrified zones on plains throughout Japan. Different from EF65-0 and EF65-500 versions,
this version has a through door in its front to facilitate double locomotive driving. The equipment against
cold weather and snow is also reinforced in consideration of winter use in Northern part of Japan.
Of 139 units produced in total, EF65-1000 versions are different among themselves, depending on the production
epochs and special specifications. This version, EF65-1000 Early Version has a unique appearance on its own
with a PS17 pantograph on the roof and two ventilating grilles on the front side. This type of locomotive
is still used widely.
