Introducing
The 211 series (211系, 211-kei) (211けいでんしゃ/211 keidensha or 211系電車) is a type of self-propelled electric trainset operating at 1.5kV DC, used for Japanese commuter and suburban services, introduced in 1985 (Shōwa 60) by JNR, and currently still operated in the Tōkai and Kantō region by JR East, and JR Central (Tokai).
This series was developed to replace the obsolete 111, 113 and 115 series as an entirely new commuter train.
Détail de la console
To the left of the console, we have car numbers and door opening status (red indicator = doors open).
In the center, we have :
- At the top, the ATS-Ps display
- Bottom left, speed dial
- In the center, the lock indicator and a bit of the pocket watch
- Bottom right: brake cylinder pressure (black arrow) and compressed-air reservoir pressure (red arrow).
Note that the speed-limiting brake is located on the brake lever, between neutral and brake level 1.
Finally, on the far right, we have the brake level (with emergency brake indicator in red and speed limitation indicator in yellow).
At the top, next to the TIMS display is the ATS-P panel.
Consult the MON/TIMS/INTEROS screen page for more details about the TIMS screen.
