The Kintetsu 3220 series (近鉄3220系) is an electric multiple unit (EMU) commuter train type operated by the private railway operator Kintetsu Railway since 2000.
Operations[]
The 3220 series sets mainly operate on Kyoto Line services, including through-running to and from the Karasuma Subway Line.[1] Operation is limited to east of Sakuragawa Station on Nara/Namba line services as the trains lack the safety devices required on the Hanshin Line.
Formations[]
As of April 2019, the fleet consists of three six-car sets, with all sets based at Saidaiji Depot mainly for Kyoto Line services.[1] The sets are formed with three motored (M) cars and three non-powered trailer (T) cars, and the 3720 car at the Namba/Kyoto end.
| Designation | Tc | M | M | T | M | Tc |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Numbering | Ku 3720 | Mo 3820 | Mo 3620 | Sa 3520 | Mo 3220 | Ku 3120 |
The Mo 3220 car is fitted with two cross-arm pantographs while the rest of the M cars are fitted with one single-arm pantograph.[1]
