This series was also temporarily used after the resumption of operations instead of the Train Series 207, which was the train involved in the JR Fukuchiyama Line Train Derailment Accident, because many trains of that series needed to leave the scene of their work in order to be repainted.
また、JR福知山線脱線事故の車両となった207系の車体塗装の塗り替えによる運用離脱が相次いだため、路線の運転再開後に一時的ではあるが応援運用にも入った。
