History
One single car was converted from former Iyo Railway 100 series car MoHa 106, purchased in October 1985. This car was built in 1950 by Teikoku Sharyo as KuHa 405, and converted to become single-car MoHa 106 with an additional cab in 1967. Conversion for use on the Choshi Electric Railway involved sealing the gangway in the later added cab end (at the Tokawa end), and replacement of the original Hitachi MIC bogies with Nippon Sharyo D-16 type bogies.[1]
The car was repainted in 1990 from the earlier red and cream livery to the "new" Choshi Electric Railway livery of brown and red.[1]
It was withdrawn after its final day of operation on 23 September 2010.[2]
