JR East E231 Series / JR東日本E231系

The E231 Series (E231系) is an EMU operated by JR East in the Greater Tokyo Area.

A mass production vehicle designed around the turn of the century, the E231 Series serves as a general purpose type for both commuter and suburban operations, replacing increasingly obsolete JNR-era rolling stock. A large number of variants was produced to serve on a variety of lines in the Kantō region, including the Yamanote Line, Chūō–Sōbu Line and Tōkaidō Main Line. Although E231 operations on many lines were gradually supplanted by E233 and E235 types, the series remain as one of the most frequently seen trains around Greater Tokyo. 2736 total cars were produced across all variants, a number second only to the E233 series within the JR Group. 2476 cars remain in service as of March 2024.
