"Subways are highly public by nature, so it's not a priority to stand out but to simply match with urban needs": These words describe Hitachi's new Series 3000 of train, which are being used in Miyagi Prefecture's Sendai City's Namboku Subway Line, winning the 2024 Good Design Award in the process. Praised for their quietness, the design and ease of use of these trains meshed beautifully with the needs of Sendai City, also known as the "City of Trees."
Manufactured by Hitachi, Ltd., the new Series 3000 of train was designed by Sho Nozue of Hitachi's Research and Development Group. How did Nozue exemplify the thoughts and feelings of the people of Sendai City into the design of a new train series? And was the series evaluated as matching the needs of the city?
