History

Details of the 22600 series were first announced on 11 December 2008.[3] Initially, 10 vehicles were introduced, at a cost of approximately 1.9 billion yen, formed as two 4-car sets and one 2-car set. A further 22 vehicles (eleven 2-car sets) were delivered from Kinki Sharyo between 2009 and 2010.[4]

In 2010, the 22600 series received the Laurel Prize, presented annually by the Japan Railfan Club.[5]

On 23 January 2014, Kintetsu and Hanshin Electric Railway both announced plans to operate through-service chartered trains, primarily on Saturdays and holidays, between Kobe-Sannomiya Station on the Hanshin Main Line and Kashikojima Station on the Kintetsu Shima Line, using 22600 series trainsets.[6] These services commenced on 22 March 2014.[7]

In 2015, Kintetsu announced plans to introduced a new livery for its general-purpose limited express fleet, replacing the previous orange and navy blue livery with a white, gold, and yellow livery.[8] Two-car set AT56 was the first set to receive the updated colour scheme, first bearing the new livery in July 2016.[9]
