Meitetsu 5700 series

The Meitetsu 5700 series was a Japanese city commuter electric multiple unit operated by the Nagoya Railroad (Meitetsu) from June 1986 to December 2019.
==History==
The 5700 series sets were designed as a high-performance train for the Meitetsu network for general use with air conditioning. A total of 28 cars were produced, all by Nippon Sharyo. A derivative was later produced which entered service in January 1987. Scrapping commenced in 2017 in preparation for the standardization of all Meitetsu general rolling stock to have four doors per side; the last set, 5704, was retired on 6 December 2019. No 5700 series cars have been preserved.
==Design==
The 5700 series cars use a raked front end with bottom mounted headlights.
==Specifications==
Construction of the cars was of steel. The sets used field chopper-controlled traction systems.
