The Keikyu 700 series (京急700形) was a DC electric multiple unit (EMU) commuter train type operated by the private operator Keikyu on commuter services in the Tokyo area of Japan from 1967 until 2005.[1]
The 700 series was the first Keikyu stock type to have 4 doors on each side.[2] A total of 84 cars were built between 1967 and 1971.
The fleet was withdrawn between 1998 and 2005, and 20 cars were transferred to Takamatsu Electric Railway.
