In 2019, the livery of set 3052 was changed to match that of the then-new Keisei 3100 series trains, with four other 3050 subseries sets scheduled to be re-liveried the same way in the future.[19] Set 3056 remains the last set to obtain the orange scheme.[20]
Starting from December 2019, 3050 subseries trains were re-liveried to match that of the 3000 series fleet. As of November 2021, sets 3051, 3052, 3053, and 3054 have been re-liveried.[21]
