History
The 7000 series first appeared in 1996.[2] It is the second original design for the Semboku Railway following the 5000 series.[3]
These are the second series in the Semboku fleet to feature aluminum bodies and VVVF inverters.[2]
The 7020 series was introduced in 2007 and implements a selection of improvements to the original 7000 series including more handstraps, stanctions, and distinguishable priority seating.[4] The difference between the 7020 series and the 7000 series is that the 7020 series has a distinguishable single centered front door.[3]
Operations
The trains are used on through-services from Namba to Izumi-Chūō via the Nankai Main Line and Semboku Line, as well as on services on the Koya Line.[5]
Special liveries
As the flagship rolling stock of the Semboku Rapid Railway,[6] the trainsets have been painted in various promotional liveries. From April 2015 through 2018,[7] 7020 series set 7521 was wrapped in a livery to promote the 20th anniversary of the opening Izumi-Chūō station.[8][needs update] Starting in October 2017, 7000 series set 7509 was wrapped in a livery to promote characters featured at the Osaka Prefectural Children's Center.[9] This wrap was named "Frontier" from October 2017.[needs update]
