Rolling Stock
As of March 31, 2010, Hankyu has 1,319 cars for passenger service. Standard cars have three doors per side and bench seating facing the center of the train (exceptions are noted below). The Kobe Line and Takarazuka Line use almost the same types of fleet, instead, by historical reason the Kyoto Line is served by another types of rolling stock. Some of former cars of Hankyu, such as 2000 series and 3100 series, have been transferred to and are now used by Nose Electric Railway.

Famous quotes containing the words rolling and/or stock:
“... in the cities there are thousands of rolling stones like me. We are all alike; we have no ties, we know nobody, we own nothing. When one of us dies, they scarcely know where to bury him.... We have no house, no place, no people of our own. We live in the streets, in the parks, in the theatres. We sit in restaurants and concert halls and look about at the hundreds of our own kind and shudder.”
—Willa Cather (1873–1947)
“After supper she got out her book and learned me about Moses and the Bulrushers; and I was in a sweat to find out all about him; but by and by she let it out that Moses had been dead a considerable long time; so then I didn’t care no more about him; because I don’t take no stock in dead people.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
