Enjoy the sound of the early Mitsubishi GTO-VVVF motor of Kintetsu 1420 series, equipped with a VVVF inverter, the first in Japan* for a general train, in the station arrival and departure scenes and the sound of the train running inside! Enjoy the motor sound of Japanese train. This is Japan's first train equipped with a VVVF inverter. Osaka Prefecture / Kintetsu Line / Series 1420/MITSUBISHI GTO-VVVF The 1420 series debuted in 1984 as the 1250 series, Japan's first VVVF inverter train at 1500V. As proof of this, there is a [VVVF] logo plate on the side of the car body. After that, it was renumbered to the 1420 series, and almost 20 years later, in 2008, the inside of the VVVF was updated, changing the sound from the clear JR 209 series sound at the time of its debut to the current sound. It has been 16 years since 2008, and the second update is coming soon. It is expected that the next VVVF will be replaced with a new SiC-applied VVVF. If you want to hear a sound close to the original, head to Kintetsu as soon as possible! In recent years, the number of GTO-VVVF vehicles that make a loud sound has decreased in Japanese trains due to updates to the VVVF inverter devices. However, Kintetsu still operates many GTO-VVVF vehicles! By the way, in the Kanto region there is the convenient operation bulletin board Ioo-ooI, but I learned that in recent years, an operation bulletin board Ere-Site that shows the current location has been opened in Kansai on some lines. I found the "VW21" on that bulletin board, and succeeded in filming the 1420 series that I have been pursuing for many years! *Excluding test cars and trams --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sound quality: ★★★★★5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapters Created by viewer: Michi-do Aniki 0:00 Listening to the amazing super-sounding early Mitsubishi GTO up close at Goido 0:30 Super-sounding even when stopped at Sanbonmatsu 1:13 Departing from Sanbonmatsu Express operation paired with 1400 series FC02 1:48 At Yamatotakada 2:40 This is Japan's first DC 1500V overhead line type vvvf device 2:46 Departing Yamatotakada 3:21 At Fuse 3:26 Originally attached to all Kintetsu vvvf cars, now only the 1421 series has the Kintetsu vvvf plate 3:35 Departing from Fuse 3:59 Boarding, super-sounding running sound 12:47 At Onchi 13:46 Departing from Onchi ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [Good Sound♪ Sound Train Video Series No. 490] ◎To enjoy the sound, we recommend watching with earphones, headphones or high quality speakers! ⬇ Introduction video about this channel • Good Sound♪ TOQBOX9000 Channel Introduction Video ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
