The 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]
, the fleet consists of seven six-car sets, numbered 10011 to 10071, and formed as shown below, with four motored ("M") cars and two non-powered trailer ("T") cars.[3] Car 1 is at the end.[3] [5]

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 pattern.[4] LED lighting is used throughout.[4] Passenger information is provided by 7-inch 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]
This vehicle was introduced to replace the aging 1000 series.
The first set, 10011, was delivered to Tokyo Monorail's Showajima Depot in March 2014.[6] It entered revenue service on 18 July 2014.[7]
On 31 May 2022, structural cracks were discovered on seven 10000 series trainsets, causing a reduction in peak-hour service from every four minutes to every five minutes.[8] The cracks were mainly found on an aluminum part which connects the body of the vehicle to the bogie.
