The JR Kyushu  415 Series pack is required for some consists.

 

Unlike with JR East, the situation of JR Kyushu’s fleet of 415-1500 Series trains has remained nearly unchanged since 1987, with all eight JNR-built sets still in service, togheter with an additional 4-car set that the company bought from JR East in 2009. As of today, the fleet is split between Minami-Fukuoka depot, for services on the Kagoshima Line, and Oita Depot for services on the Nippo Main Line.

 

JR Kyushu has not made plans to retire the 415-1500 Series yet: with the replacement of “conventional steel” 415 Series sets nearly complete, the 415-1500 Series remains as JR Kyushu’s sole AC/DC commuter train in service, and as such, the company will still need them for services via the DC-only Kanmon undersea tunnel between Moji and Shimonoseki, atleast until a new order for multivoltage commuter trains is made. This is also reinforced by the fact that 415-1500 Series trains have stainless steel bodyshells, wich don’t suffer from corrosion damage coming from saltwater, a common issue with their older “conventional steel” predecessors.
