The Tokyo Monorail 10000 series (東京モノレール10000形, Tōkyō Monorēru 10000-gata) is a monorail electric multiple unit (EMU) train type operated by the Tokyo Monorail on the Tokyo Monorail Haneda Airport Line in Japan since July 2014.[3]

The body design is based on the earlier 2000 series trains first built in 1997, and uses friction stir welded (FSW) aluminum alloy panels.[4]

Interior

Passenger accommodation consists of a mixture of facing 4-seat bays and longitudinal bench seating, and includes baggage racks next to the doorways.[4] The seats are covered in a blue moquette incorporating the traditional Japanese seigaiha (青海波) pattern.[4] LED lighting is used throughout.[4] Passenger information is provided by 7-inch (178 mm) wide LCD displays above the doorways.[4] Information is provided in four languages: Japanese, English, Chinese, and Korean. Initially one screen is provided above each doorway, but provision is made for installing a second screen in the future.[4]
