Following the “legend collection” Series 581, which was sold last year with good reputation, Kato plans to release Series 583 sleeper express train. Series 583 express used to be operated between metropolitan Ueno and northern Aomori terminal stations. The daytime express was called “Hatsukari” (Wild Geese), while the night sleeper express was called “Hakutsuru”(White Crane), “Yuzuru”(Evening Crane).

Series 583 will be marketed in the three different sets which can even make the 6-car- consist train that still remains now in JR East Japan’s Akita train depot to be used as a charter train.
