The 201 series is a commuter train of the Japanese National Railways that was introduced in 1979. It was
the first JNR train to adopt armature chopper control, and was introduced as an energy-saving and maintenance-free vehicle.
JR West's 201 series underwent a renewal project called "Constitutional Improvement 30N" from 2003 to 2008 with the aim of extending the life of the vehicle, and both the exterior and interior were significantly changed.
Furthermore, from around 2009, the air conditioner was replaced with a WAU709 type, but the number of these trains gradually decreased due to the introduction of the successor 323 series, and they were finally retired from the Osaka Loop Line and Sakurajima Line in June 2019.
