The TCDD E14000 was a series of electric multiple units produced by TÜVASAŞ under license from Alstom for the Turkish State Railways.

75 units entered service in 1979, operating on the Haydarpaşa–Gebze and Sirkeci–Halkalı suburban lines in Istanbul.

The trains were also used between 1979 and 2010 on the Sincan–Kayaş suburban line in Ankara (today known as Başkentray), and on the Ankara-Polatlı Regional service.

The units were withdrawn from service in 2013, when the old suburban lines were closed for renewal under the Marmaray project, as they had become heavily worn in their final years.

Of the series, units E14010 and E14025 were overhauled in 2019 and are currently used as regional trains between Eskişehir and Kütahya.^[1]
