The design is derived from the 209 series commuter EMU, and was intended to replace locomotive-hauled trains formed of JNR 50 series\u00a0[ja] coaches in the north of Japan.[3]  Table of ContentsVariants[edit]701-0 series[edit]Formations[edit]3-car sets N1-N13[edit]2-car sets N14-N38[edit]Interior[edit]701-100 series[edit]Formations[edit]3-car set N101[edit]2-car sets N102 and F2-103\u2013106[edit]701-1000 series[edit]Formations[edit]4-car sets[edit]2-car sets[edit]701-1500 series[edit]Formation[edit]701-5000 series[edit]Formation[edit]Interior[edit]701-5500 series[edit]Formation[edit]Aoimori 701 series[edit]Formation[edit]IGR 7000 series[edit]Formations[edit]IGR 7000-0 series[edit]IGR 7000-100 series[edit]Livery variations[edit]References[edit]External links[edit]Variants[edit]701-0 series: 2\/3-car narrow-gauge sets based at Akita Depot701-100 series: 2\/3-car narrow-gauge sets based at Akita and Sendai Depot701-1000 series: 2\/4-car narrow-gauge sets based at Morioka and Sendai Depot701-1500 series: 2-car narrow-gauge sets based at Sendai Depot701-5000 series: 2-car standard-gauge sets based at Akita Depot701-5500 series: 2-car standard-gauge sets based at Yamagata DepotAoimori 701 series: 2-car narrow-gauge sets operated by the Aoimori RailwayIGR 7000 series: 2-car narrow-gauge sets operated by the Iwate Galaxy Railway701-0 series[edit]  Akita-based 701-0 series 2-car set N18 in April 201289 701-0 series cars were delivered in 1993, formed as three-car sets (N1 to N13) and two-car sets (N14 to N38), all based at Akita Depot. Three two-car sets (N36 to N38) were later modified with some transverse seating, and from 2005, the entire fleet had the original PS104 scissors-type pantographs replaced with PS109 single-arm pantographs. Snowploughs were also added to the front ends at the same time.[4]  These sets are used on the Uetsu Main Line between Tsuruoka and Akita, on the \u014cu Main Line between Shinj\u014d and Aomori, and on the Tsugaru Line between Aomori and Kanita. The sets with transverse seating are mainly used on the \u014cu Main Line between Shinj\u014d and Akita.[4]Formations[edit]3-car sets N1-N13[edit]DesignationMcTTc’NumberingKuMoHa 701SaHa 701KuHa 700The KuMoHa 701 car is fitted with one pantograph.

All sets were initially based at Akita Depot, but four of the 2-car sets were subsequently transferred to Sendai. The Akita-based sets had the original PS104 scissors-type pantographs replaced with PS109 single-arm pantographs between 2007 and 2008. Snowploughs were also added to the front ends at the same time. The Sendai-based sets had the original PS104 scissors-type pantographs replaced with lower-profile PS105 lozenge-type pantographs in 2002 to allow operation through limited-clearance tunnels on the Senzan Line.[4][5]The Sendai-based sets are normally used on the Joban Line between Iwaki and Iwanuma, and on the Tohoku Main Line between Iwanuma and Sendai. They are also available for use on Senzan Line services if required. The Akita-based sets are used interchangeably alongside the 701-0 series sets.[4]Formations[edit]3-car set N101[edit]DesignationMcTTc’NumberingKuMoHa 701-100SaHa 701-100KuHa 700-100The KuMoHa 701 car is fitted with one pantograph.

As of 2010, 14 cars (seven 2-car sets), 30 cars (fifteen 2-car sets) are based at Morioka, and 36 cars (four 4-car sets and ten 2-car sets) are based at Sendai. Eight of the original 2-car sets were transferred to the Iwate Galaxy Railway Line, becoming IGR 7000-0 series (see below), and one 2-car set was transferred to the Aoimori Railway, becoming Aoimori 700-0 series (see below). On 28 October 1999, one Aomori-based 2-car set (KuMoHa 701-1033 + KuHa 700-1033) was damaged by storm surge at Aomori Station. New bodies were manufactured for this set in 2000, and it was renumbered KuMoHa 701-1508 + KuHa 700-1508 and reallocated to Sendai depot.[4]A further seven 701-1000 series two-car sets were transferred to the Aoimori Railway during 2010, becoming Aoimori 700-0 series.[6]The Sendai-based sets are used on the Tohoku Main Line between Kuroiso and Ichinoseki, including the branch line to Rifu, and on the Senzan Line. The Morioka-based sets are used on the Tohoku Main Line between Ichinoseki and Morioka, and on the Iwate Galaxy Railway Line between Morioka and Iwate-Numakunai. The Aomori-based sets are used on the Tohoku Main Line between Hachinohe and Aomori.[4]Formations[edit]4-car sets[edit]DesignationMcT’MTc’NumberingKuMoHa 701-1000SaHa 700-1000MoHa 701-1000KuHa 700-100The KuMoHa 701 and MoHa 701 cars are each fitted with one PS105 lozenge-type pantograph.

Sets from  F2-509 onward were fitted with wheelchair spaces and ATS-Ps from new.

During 2001, the original PS105 lozenge-type pantographs were replaced with PS106B single-arm pantographs. Snowploughs were added to the front ends at the same time.The fleet is used on the \u014cu Main Line between Yonezawa and Shinj\u014d.[4]The fleet of nine trainsets underwent a programme of refurbishment between 2013 and 2016. Improvements included replacement of electrical converters and transformers with similar equipment to that used on the later E721 series trains, as well as new flooring material internally.[7]Formation[edit]DesignationMcTc’NumberingKuMoHa 701-5000KuHa 700-5000The KuMoHa 701 car is fitted with one PS105 lozenge-type pantograph.

The 701-100 series set has some transverse seating.[5]A further seven two-car (former 701-1000 series) sets were transferred from JR East during 2010 ahead of the transfer of passenger operations from JR East on the section from Hachinohe to Aomori when the Tohoku Shinkansen extension to Shin-Aomori opened in December 2010.[8] These units are modified with the addition of some transverse seating.
