Railway Vehicle Detail File Treasured Edition 003 EF10

The Ministry of Railways is the advancement of the National Railways. The history of domestically produced electric locomotives at the Ministry of Railways began with the EF52 in 1928 (Showa 3), followed by the ED16 in 1931, and the following year the EF53, an advanced model of the EF52, appeared, ushering in the era of full-fledged electric locomotives. I welcomed him.

At the same time, a plan for a general-purpose electric machine mainly for cargo use was launched, and the first EF10 was born in September 1934. As a result of the earlier operation of 16 cars, it gained a reputation for stable performance and ease of handling, and in 1938 (Showa 13), 8 cars were added mainly for use in the Kanmon tunnel, and it became the first train for passenger trains. It was.

A final addition of 17 cars was built between 1940 and 1942.
The production period was 9 years, and the total number of locomotives produced was 41 locomotives, an unusually long period and large number of locomotives produced in a country where electrical machinery was still developing.As a result of the developing locomotive manufacturing technology being reflected in each period, the same type of locomotives were produced. Despite the fact that they are different in form, they have become so different that they can even be called different forms.

This book is a compilation and re-editing of "Railway Vehicle Detail Files" 002, 004, and 0007 published in 2009 and 2010, and features the EF10, which can be said to be one of the cornerstones of electric locomotives, which has not been comprehensively reviewed. Let's take a closer look at the details of each car.
