The 475 series appeared as a 60Hz compatible specification of the 455 series, which is an AC / DC express train, and was placed in the Hokuriku and Kyushu areas.
The 475 series in the Hokuriku area has moved to local transportation due to the reduction of express trains that started at the end of the Japanese National Railways.
When diverting to local transportation, suburban remodeling was carried out, including remodeling to semi-cross seats by lengthening some seats.
After the conversion to local transportation, the 475 series in the Hokuriku area was active in the body color of Red No. 2 with a cream-colored band, but from around 1988, the body color of ivory was covered with a blue band. It was changed to the paint color.
