TOKYO 2010 (AFP) - A new high-speed railway line linking Narita airport with central Tokyo opened on Saturday.
The 64-kilometre (40-mile) line, Narita Sky Access, cuts the travel time between Nippori Station in Tokyo and the airport in Chiba, southeast of the capital, by 15 minutes to 36 minutes.
Fashion designer Kansai Yamamoto designed the new "Skyliner" train for the service, which can run at 160 kilometers (100 miles) per hour.
