The EH10 class of electric locomotives were Bo′Bo′+Bo′Bo′ wheel arrangement two-unit DC freight locomotives operated by Japanese National Railways (JNR) in Japan from 1954 until 1982.[1]
The exterior was designed by industrial designer Masao Hagiwara.
The EH10 was used for 1,200 tonne freight trains on the Tōkaidō Main Line between Tokyo (Shiodome) and Osaka (Umeda).
One example, EH10 61, is preserved at Higashi-Awaji Minami Park in Osaka.
