The 185 series is a DC limited express train that started operation in 1981.
The 200th generation was introduced for the purpose of replacing the 165 series of the Shinmaebashi train ward, and the cold and snow resistant structure has been strengthened compared to the 0th generation.
The body color is based on Cream No. 10 and has a green No. 14 band under the window to harmonize with the Tohoku-Joetsu Shinkansen.
It was operated as the "Shinkansen Relay" between Ueno and Omiya on June 23, 1982, in line with the pre-opening of the Tohoku Shinkansen between Omiya and Morioka.
After the Tohoku-Hokkaido Line opened to Ueno, it was used for each "New Limited Express" train, which was an upgraded version of the express train that was operating on the Tohoku-Takasaki Line.
