Chiyoda Line 3-car sets
As of 1 April 2014, two 3-cars sets are in operation, sets 61 and 62. These two aluminium-bodied sets are used on the Chiyoda Line branch between Ayase and Kita-Ayase, and are formed as shown below.

Tōzai Line 10-car sets
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.
