History
The first 8000 series trains were introduced in 1992.[3]
Six-car and four-cars sets (and occasionally a pair of four-car sets) used to be operated on splitting services which separated and re-joined at Takahatafudō Station until 2006. From 2013 to 2019, all six- and four-car 0-subseries sets underwent a refurbishment program. Among several technical upgrades, the cabs of the two inner ends were removed to form 10-car sets.[3]
The 8000 series trains are used exclusively on Keio Corporation lines. Thus, unlike some other Keio trains, they do not continue past Shinjuku on to the Toei Shinjuku Line.
