The Odakyu 3000 series (小田急3000形, Odakyū 3000-gata) is an electric multiple unit (EMU) commuter train type operated by the private railway operator Odakyu Electric Railway in Japan since 2002. First introduced on 10 February 2002, a total of 312 cars were built in eight batches with orders divided between Nippon Sharyo, Tokyu Car Corporation, and Kawasaki Heavy Industries. Originally formed as six- or eight-car formations, a further eight cars were built in late 2010 to augment six-car sets to ten cars.[1]

Doraemon-liveried "F-Train"

Set 3093 in Doraemon livery in September 2011

In August 2011, 10-car set 3093 was reliveried in a Doraemon livery to commemorate the opening of the Fujiko F. Fujio Museum in Kawasaki, Kanagawa. The train was scheduled to run in its livery for one year, but this was cut short due to complaints from the Tokyo Metropolitan Government that it violated metropolitan ordinances regulating advertising on train exteriors. The decorated "F-Train" remained in service until 30 September 2011, before the exterior advertising was removed.[4]
