Choshi Electric Railway 300 series

The Choshi Electric Railway 300 series (銚子電鉄300形) was an electric multiple unit (EMU) train type operated by the private railway operator Choshi Electric Railway in Chiba Prefecture, Japan, between 1951 and 2008.

History
DeHa 301 started life as MoHa 105, an electric multiple unit car built in August 1930 by Niigata Tekkō (新潟鐵工所) for the Tsurumi Rinkō Railway (鶴見臨港鉄道) in Kanagawa Prefecture. MoHa 105 was renumbered MoHa 115 in May 1941 following the absorption of the Tsurumi Rinkō Railway into the Japanese National Railways (JNR) network, and later worked on the JNR Toyamako Line (now part of the Toyama Light Rail Toyamakō Line) in Toyama Prefecture. It was removed from service on 10 September 1944 and placed into storage at Ōi Works in Tokyo, and officially withdrawn on 28 March 1949.
