Type index



Some 721-0 series fleets began to be fitted the AVAF inverter traction system and ac 3-phase asynchronous motors, N-MT721A, rated at 250kW and they were classified into -2100 sub-series from 2010. Brake resistors are removed because of the change of brake system. Because of these modifications, the motored end cars were changed into trailer.
Now 721-2100 series are used on the rural services in the suburbs of Sapporo.
