Cargo sprinters first saw service in Europe. Basically they are a series of flat cars with powered units at the end of each train. Their cabs, look similar to truck cabs. In Japan, they run off of an overhead catenary, with a very similar make up to those in Germany. There’s a set of two cargo sprinters there. Cargo sprinters first saw service in Europe.

Sort of towards the bay, south of the Omori and Shinagawa districts. You can see this yard from the balcony of their flat, in the distance. Looks much coller from above though...
