The {{nihongo|'''419 series'''|419系|419-kei}} was an [[electric multiple unit]] (EMU) train type introduced in 1985 by [[Japanese National Railways]] (JNR), and later operated by [[West Japan Railway Company]] (JR-West) on local services along the Japan Sea coast of Japan until March 2011. They were converted from former [[583 series]] sleeping car EMUs in the 1980s.<ref name="neko2009">{{cite book| script-title=ja: JR全車輌ハンドブック2009| trans-title = JR Rolling Stock Handbook 2009| publisher = Neko Publishing| year = 2009| location = Japan| page = 303| isbn = 978-4-7770-0836-0| title = Jēāru zensharyō handobukku: Rail Magazine 2009}}</ref>
