Rolling Stock
Presently 205 series EMUs in 8-car sets are used. The second car from the Higashi-Kanagawa end has six pairs of doors on each side to allow rapid boarding and disembarking during peak periods. Through trains to and from the Sagami Line are served by 4-car 205-500 series EMUs.
28 new 8-car E233 series EMUs are scheduled to be introduced on Yokohama Line services from fiscal 2014, displacing the fleet of 205 series EMUs.

Famous quotes containing the words rolling and/or stock:
“... in the cities there are thousands of rolling stones like me. We are all alike; we have no ties, we know nobody, we own nothing. When one of us dies, they scarcely know where to bury him.... We have no house, no place, no people of our own. We live in the streets, in the parks, in the theatres. We sit in restaurants and concert halls and look about at the hundreds of our own kind and shudder.”
—Willa Cather (1873–1947)
“I’d rather I were dead and gone,
And my body laid in grave,
Ere a rusty stock o coal-black smith
My maidenhead should have.”
—Unknown. The Twa Magicians (l. 17–20)
