How could I forget! The Keiyo Line started using E233 trains in 2010, 3 years before they hit the Tokaido Line. What a striking color!pic.twitter.com/XOfXTUhBob
In early 2014, E233 trains were launched on the Yokohama Line--just in time for my visit in the fall!pic.twitter.com/llzeyDjDt7
The Saikyo Line upgraded to the E233 in 2013...I had been under the impression it was 2014, shows what I know...pic.twitter.com/yK14eeQU0l
And finally, the newest E233, launched in October 2014 (just after I left!)--the Nambu Line.pic.twitter.com/G6ijknTULq
But wait, there's more! The E129 series is an E233 derivative for use in the more rural Niigata region...pic.twitter.com/Wz6sIxS26h
