Jcarlton Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 The Yamanote line in 1980, from the conductor's cab looking backward. Ikebukuro-Ikebukuro:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PE0Wdp-1oI 5 Link to comment
railsquid Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Nice. Note the caption says "1980s" ("1980年代"), and I suspect it's a little later than 1980 as the Odakyu "Mylord" building in Shinjuku is visible, which IIRC was early/mid 80s. Link to comment
railsquid Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Wikipedia gives 1984 for the opening date of the Mylord building. I haven't watched every minute but all the Yamanote line trains going the other way were 103s; as the 205s were introduced between 1985 and 1988 I'd put the video in 1984 or 1985. Probably very early in the morning judging by the lack of people on the platforms. 1 1 Link to comment
maihama eki Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 At 6:00, one of these Komoru Type 145 Supply car pairs passes in the other direction. https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10520124 Are those still around? 1 Link to comment

One pair was recently exhibited for a short time after an overhaul. Could be the last ones around. On this occasion Tomix will re-release the blue yellow paint variant and the green yellow one as a new paint. Link to comment
