10-car 5000 series sets operated on the Tokyo Metro Tōzai Line from December 1964 until March 2007. They were also used on the JR Chuo-Sobu Line between Nakano Station and Mitaka Station, between Nishi-Funabashi Station and Tsudanuma Station (weekday mornings and evenings only), and on the Tōyō Rapid Line between Nishi-Funabashi Station and Tōyō-Katsutadai Station.
Later sets had aluminium bodies.
Ten former Tōzai Line sets were converted in 1995 to Tōyō Rapid 1000 series EMUs for use on the Tōyō Rapid Railway extension of the Tōzai Line.
Three former Tōzai Line 10-car sets (5059, 5066, 5067) were sold to Indonesia in 2007, entering service with KRL Jabotabek in the Jakarta area from May 2007.[2]
