The EF510-0 series is an AC/DC electric locomotive that was introduced in 2002 to replace the EF81 series and began operation in 2004.
Nicknamed "ECO-POWER Red Thunder" due to its red-based body paint, the EF510 series features a logo on the body.
While primarily used on the Japan Sea Longitudinal Line, where the EF81 series was previously used, in recent years it has expanded its range of use to include the Chuo-Nishi Line and the Tokaido-Sanyo Main Line up to Okayama.
Since the introduction of the passenger-use 500 series, the 21st locomotive and later have undergone exterior changes, such as the positioning of the signal flare being changed to directly above the driver's cab assistant, similar to the 500 series.
