The Tokyo Metropolitan Bureau of Transportation has launched the “Toden (TODEN) Vehicle Renewal Project” on the Toden Arakawa Line (Tokyo Sakura Tram).
A vehicle that has been used for many years (Model 8500, 1 car) will be renovated with a special design. Designer and illustrator Eiji Mitooka will supervise the design. The exterior will have a body color reminiscent of the old Toden in yamabuki yellow, and the seats will be designed with diverse patterns, using wood extensively.
To promote the project, crowdfunding is being conducted from noon on May 23 to July 22. The target amount is 17,000,000 yen. Donation amounts range from 3,000 yen to 500,000 yen. Examples of return gifts include a set of vehicle design goods, the right to have your name displayed inside the vehicle, an invitation to the unveiling ceremony, and participation in the ribbon-cutting.
