The Kintetsu 3220 series (近鉄3220系) is an electric multiple unit (EMU) commuter train type operated by the private railway operator Kintetsu Railway since 2000.

Operations

The 3220 series sets mainly operate on Kyoto Line services, including through-running to and from the Karasuma Subway Line.[1] Operation is limited to east of Sakuragawa Station on Nara/Namba line services as the trains lack the safety devices required on the Hanshin Line.

Formations

As of April 2019, the fleet consists of three six-car sets, with all sets based at Saidaiji Depot mainly for Kyoto Line services.[1] The sets are formed with three motored (M) cars and three non-powered trailer (T) cars, and the 3720 car at the Namba/Kyoto end.
