The is an AC electric multiple unit (EMU) train type introduced in 1989 by East Japan Railway Company (JR East) on services in the Miyagi, Yamagata, and Fukushima areas of Japan. Design Built jointly by Nippon Sharyo and Tokyu Car, the type is based on the 415-1500 series EMU design, with all units formed as 2-car sets. Variants 719-0 series: narrow-gauge type based at Sendai and Akita depots 719-5000 series: standard-gauge type based at Yamagata Depot 719-700 series: FruiTea excursion set converted in 2015 from 719-0 series , the fleet consists of 34 719-0 series two-car sets based at Sendai, two 719-0 series two-car sets based at Akita, and 12 719-5000 series two-car sets based at Yamagata. 719-0 series The 719-0 series consists of narrow-gauge two-car sets based at Sendai Depot for use on the Tohoku Main Line, Senzan Line, and Banetsu West Line, and at Akita Depot for use on the Ou Main Line. 42 sets were built by Tokyu Car Corporation between December 1989 and August 1991. The trains reused some equipment from withdrawn JNR-era EMUs, including the DT32 (motored) and TR69 (trailer) bogies, as well as the pantographs. Some sets (H10 to H15) were reliveried in an "Akabe" colour scheme for Banetsu West Line services from 2007. One set, H27, was converted to become the 719-700 series FruiTea excursion train in 2015. Sets H10 and H13 were transferred from Sendai to Akita in March 2017, entering revenue service on Akita area services on 28 July 2017. These sets were reliveried with a pink bodyline stripe to match the 701 series trains already used in the area. Due to lacking of spare train components, the 719-0 series was gradually replaced by the E721-1000 series from 2017. As of March 2020, all sets were withdrawn from revenue services except sets H10, H13 and H27. Formations The 719-0 series sets are numbered H1 to H42, and are formed as follows, with one motored "Mc" car and one non-powered trailer ("Tc") car, and the KuHa 718 car at the southern end. The KuMoHa 719 cars have one PS16 lozenge-type pantograph. Sets H10 to H18 have single-arm pantographs. The KuHa 718 cars have a toilet. Interior 719-5000 series The 719-5000 series consists of standard-gauge two-car sets based at Yamagata Depot for use on the Ou Main Line. 12 sets were built between September and October 1991. These entered service from November 1991
