[Actual Vehicles]
In the past, JNR freight trains supported freight transportation. However, container transportation was introduced in the late 1950 s as a new method to replace inefficient freight trains.
The transportation unit was a single container, and high-speed transportation by high-performance freight cars exclusively for containers, and the flexibility to easily pick up and deliver goods to distant places away from the tracks by trucks.
In 1959, the first freight cars exclusively for containers were manufactured with the Chiki 5000 without a deck and the Chiki 5500 with a deck (later changed from "Chiki" to "Koki"). The car body color was different from that of conventional freight cars, and it was able to carry five small Type 1 containers.
In the 1960 s, the Koki 5000 was incorporated into the Koki 5500.
The deck was installed and the Koki 5500 was incorporated into the Koki 50000.
The initial models of Koki 5500 to Koki 6273 were reinforced in the longitudinal direction on the side, and the image of the Koki 5500 was changed to four Type 2 containers without changing the car body.
[Product Overview]
When large Type 2 containers were introduced together with the succeeding Koki 1970, many parts were installed in the longitudinal direction on the side.
After being remodeled into four containers, some parts became owned by JR Freight, and you could see containers of the JR generation being transported.
