 "Ration" of National Railway's Series 63 emus to private railways
Before going into the description of Tobu Railway's Series 5000 emus, we have to go through Series 63 emus of Japanese National Railways, which the Government "rationed" some private railways in 1946, just after the end of World War II.
The "ration" was undertaken in the view that the private railway companies, damaged by bombardments during the War and the subsequent period of chaos, could cope with the traffic demand by using those railcars, which was of "wartime design" and was easy to manufacture.
For example, Tobu had to modify its Asakusa terminal, where even now a very steep curve exists resulting in a huge gap between the train and the platform, to accept Series 63 there.
