The Kintetsu 22600 series is a Japanese limited express electric multiple unit operated by the Kintetsu Railway since April 2009.

History[]

The 22600 series sets were designed to complement the older 22000 series sets in service. Fourteen sets were produced between 2009 to 2014, all by Kinki Sharyo; the sets entered service in April 2009. These sets were given the branding of Ace, keeping the tradition held with the 22000 and 16400 series sets. The sets are the recipient of the 2010 Laurel Prize. From 2016 to 2018 all sets were repainted.

Design[]

The 22600 series sets use a flat design with top-mounted headlight clusters. The sets feature gangwayed cab ends, allowing the sets to couple with other limited express sets. Their general design is largely identical to the 22000 series sets but feature curvier fronts.

Specifications[]

Construction is of steel. The trains use Mitsubishi 2-level IGBT traction systems which produce a futuristic sound; some of the earlier sets use older-specification drives which also produce a futuristic sound.
