Thank you for playing JR EAST Train Simulator.
Thank you for your patience, we are pleased to announce the release of the 21st DLC, “Series 185”, today, February 27 (Thursday)!
▢Series 185 DLC
Vehicle Introduction
The Series 185 DC limited express train was designed and manufactured in 1981 by the then Japan National Railways (JNR). Unlike conventional limited express trains, it was designed for commuter use, with two passenger doors per car and wider doors than existing limited express trains.
It was first used for the express train “Izu” in March 1981 and the express train “Odoriko” in October of the same year, and was assigned to many express trains such as the express trains “Kusatsu” and “Tanigawa” to Gunma, and the express train “Nasuno” to Tochigi. Taking advantage of the versatility of the carriages, they were also used in various types of trains, such as regular trains, the temporary rapid “Moonlight Naru” and the “Spur” skiing train. Currently, the train is no longer in operation as a regular train, but can be seen as a temporary train.
