  1. Some Meitetsu EMUs are getting renewal treatment, among them the 1000/1200 series. The video provides a nice clear comparison.

  3. A Kanagawa Shinbun clip from 2010: The first driver profiled, Mr. Shigematsu has some interesting comments: - due to the 1000 series being an all M (motor car) consist, it had high acceleration, being able to outrun rival JR types on a parallel line even after leaving the same start point later -on all service types- local, express, and kaitoku, the 1000 series could be relied on to get the job done. It was a very stable-handling design, inspiring confidence. -the cab design allowed all controls and switches to be within easy reach. When Mr, Shigematsu began his career as a driver, Keikyu still had pre-war stock in operation- the 1000 series was state of the art at the time. If he got the 1000 series on a run, he was relieved due to its ease of operation. Short clip of 1000 series operation on the Daishi Line:
