Rolling Stock
As of March 31, 2010, Hankyu has 1,319 cars for passenger service. Standard cars have three doors per side and bench seating facing the center of the train (exceptions are noted below). The Kobe Line and Takarazuka Line use almost the same types of fleet, instead, by historical reason the Kyoto Line is served by another types of rolling stock. Some of former cars of Hankyu, such as 2000 series and 3100 series, have been transferred to and are now used by Nose Electric Railway.

Famous quotes containing the words rolling and/or stock:
“The gods had condemned Sisyphus to ceaselessly rolling a rock to the top of a mountain, whence the stone would fall back of its own weight. They had thought with some reason that there is no more dreadful punishment than futile and hopeless labor.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
“I met a Californian who would
Talk California—a state so blessed
He said, in climate, none had ever died there
A natural death, and Vigilance Committees
Had had to organize to stock the graveyards
And vindicate the state’s humanity.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
