TWR 71-000 series

The TWR 71-000 series (read as 71,000) is a Japanese commuter electric multiple unit on order by Tokyo Waterfront Area Rapid Transit expected to enter service in fiscal 2025.
==History==
Details were first announced about a second generation of trains for the TWR network in October 2022, with the trains expected to enter service some time in 2024. Further information about the trains was announced on 6 November 2023, with a design being shown as well as additional details.
J-TREC was contracted to build the sets; a total of eight ten-car sets are slated to be produced to replace the existing fleet of eight 70-000 series sets. The first set is expected to enter service in "the second half of fiscal 2025", with all sets entering service by "the first half of fiscal 2027".
==Design==
The 71-000 series sets feature a "cute smiling" aesthetic design reflected in frontal graphics. The basic design of the sets is similar to that of the E233 series sets used by JR East.
==Specifications==
The sets are intended for use on the Rinkai Line and through running to JR East's Saikyō Line. They are stated to be constructed "to similar specifications" as modern JR East rolling stock.
