The Odakyu 2000 series (小田急2000形 Odakyū 2000-gata) is a commuter electric multiple unit (EMU) train type operated by the Odakyu Electric Railway in Japan.
A total of nine 8-car sets were manufactured between 1995 and 2001 in three batches. The design was based on the earlier 1000 series sets, with the passenger doors increased in width from 1,300 to 1,600 millimetres (4 ft 3 in to 5 ft 3 in) to help reduce station dwell times.
[edit] 2000 series in culture
The Odakyu 2000 series is also featured as a player-driveable train in the computer game Microsoft Train Simulator.
