Tokyo Metro 02 series

A total of 336 cars were introduced into service from 17 October 1988 in 8 batches. 53 six-car trainsets (batches 1 to 7) operate on the main section of the Marunouchi Line, while the Hōnanchō branch uses six three-car trainsets (batch 8).

The 53 six-car sets (01–53) are formed as shown below, with car 6 at the Ikebukuro end.^[2]

The 6 three-car Hōnanchō branch line sets (81–86) are formed as shown below, with car 3 at the Nakano-Sakaue end.^[2]

All refurbished trains have a pink interior and some LCD passenger information screens above all doors.

The first trains entered service from 17 October 1988.

In March 1998, Automatic Train Control was introduced on the 02 series, which was supplemented with a Train Automatic Stopping Controller (TASC) system allowing them to stop automatically at stations since November 2002.

The 02 series fleet went under major refurbishment, with the first treated trains returning to service from February 2010.^[3] Refurbishment included the use of new Toshiba PMSM (permanent magnet synchronous motors), as fitted to the new Chiyoda Line 16000 series trains, offering energy savings of approximately 10%.^[4] Internally, pairs of 17-inch LCD passenger information monitors were installed above the passenger doors. The interior was finished in a pale salmon pink colour reminiscent of the original 300 series trains used on the line, and externally, a white "sine wave" design was added to the red bodyside stripes, again reminiscent of the 300 series livery.^[5]Initially, all 53 trains were planned to undergo refurbishment, but because of the change in plan due to the introduction of Communications-based train control, the number of trains treated was greatly reduced to 19 chopper-controlled units as the trains that were manufactured as VVVF-controlled units were not eligible for renewal. As a result, it was decided that replacing it with its successor, the Tokyo Metro 2000 series, was a better option.
