583 series preserved in Taiwan

Part of a former JR East 583 series will be preserved in the railway museum in Taipei. Strangely enough, it concerns only intermediate cars MoHaNe 582-106 and MoHaNe 583-106.

Looks like this tweet is fake news after all:

I found multiple mentions about the two cars, that were part of the last running JREast set. It's even mentioned on wikipedia and seen in the background of an orchestra event, while they were playing in the old workshop. The whereabouts of the head cars are unknown, but they were supposedly donated to the Railway Museum in Saitama, which means out of the 6 last run cars, 4 are unaccounted for (two Tc and a Mp-M pair).
