Product Description ■ In the past, a train was always connected to a freight train and the conductor was on board there. However, the environment was not so good, and the train was called "Kankyu-sha" (literally, "cold 泣車") by modifying "Kankyu-sha" (literally, "slow train"). Therefore, in order to improve working conditions for the conductor, 1168 units of the Yo 8000 type were manufactured between 1974 and 1979. The body was arranged into a two axle type on the basis of the Kokifu 10000 type, which is the conductor of a container car, and a unit construction method was adopted in which the body is placed on the underframe equivalent to the Yo 6000 type. It features a wider deck and a taller height than the previous models. In addition, the toilet was installed for the first time in the conductor car, making great progress. Most of them disappeared due to the abolishment of the conductor car in March 1985, but 31 units were registered as of 2006.
