Hankyu 8200 series

The Hankyu 8200 series is a city commuter electric multiple unit operated by Hankyu Corporation since June 1995.
==Description==
The 8200 series trains were introduced in June 1995 to aid with the increasing number of passengers and the capacity on trains during rush hours in the Kobe area was reaching its limit. Only two sets were built, both by Alna Kōki; the sets are used in conjunction with the Hankyu 8000 series sets but are only deployed during rush hours.
==Design==
The 8200 series sets feature a simple, squared off design. The cars feature dual top-mounted headlights and dual rectangular express marker light units below the windows, typical of Hankyu trains; the design is based on that of the 8000 series cars.
==Specifications==
Construction of the cars is of steel. The cars use Toshiba GTO variable frequency drives which produced a distinctive wail.
