『Skyliner』

Visitors to Japan arriving at Narita International Airport are faced with two options for limited express train service. There's JR's Narita Express, and Keisei Group's Skyliner. Of the two, the Skyliner is the cheapest, especially if passengers head to Ueno or Nippori instead of Tokyo. The Skyliner also holds the record for being the fastest non-shinkansen train in operation in Japan, covering the 69km journey from Ueno to Narita International in 41 minutes, with a top speed of 160kph (99mph in American)

 

All Skyliner trains are operated with sleek AE2 EMU's. Here, a Narita bound Skyliner leans into the curve near Senjuohashi Station in eastern Tokyo.
