    Environmentally Friendly Railway-car Technology 18 Environmentally Friendly Railway-car Technology Katsutoshi Horihata OVERVIEW: As regards railway vehicles, it is becoming important to respond Hirofumi Sakamoto to the growing concerns for the global environment while satisfying the needs to provide comfort and shorten travel times. Aiming at manufacturing Hideo Kitabayashi train cars that take account of environmental concerns, Hitachi, Ltd. has Akihiro Ishikawa developed technologies for the high-speed “Shinkansen” — starting with East Japan Railway Company’s E954-type — that raise train speed while lowering noise pollution. Furthermore, as for commuter trains, beginning with the 10000 Series for the new Fukutoshin Line of Tokyo Metro Co., Ltd., we have further advanced “A-train” technology for “cleanly” manufacturing lightweight, but extremely rigid, carriage bodywork by utilizing large-scale molded materials and friction-stir welding, and improved carriage recycleability by unifying the various kinds of aluminum alloys conventionally used into one kind. At the same time, by avoiding use of plastic resin materials (such as PVC and fiber-reinforced plastics) as much as possible — in accordance with countermeasures against fire decreed by revised ministerial ordinances — we have strengthened countermeasures against fire and poisonous gas. INTRODUCTION and improving comfort, interactions along the railway IN recent times, as concern for the environment grows, line and care for the global environment are becoming railways have been gaining attention as public transport ever more important. systems with low energy consumption.
