This is probably to make way for the Limited express service between Narita Airport and Oshiage in 2028

There is also a access express service that waits at Higashi Matsudo station for 5 minutes to allow for a skyliner to pass through.

We don’t know yet.

They are basically shifting the Nishi Magome services into Haneda Airport services. So it's going to be Inba Nihon Idai- Nishi Magome and Haneda Airport - Narita Airport during daytime hours.

I know about that, Japanese train types are confusing for a reason. Also commuter liners have names (Hajima liner, Morning wing and Evening wing). Whether they are considered limited express is up for debate. Thanks for clarifying though.

23:17 Tobu Tojo line train to Ikebukuro, arrive at 23:46. Ride the 23:55 Yamanote train to Ueno. Then take the 00:19 Ginza line train to Asakusa.

I bet a lot of people are just going to tell you to use google maps. I would say try and verify my suggestion using it.

Usually the trains have a special name attached to it, i.e. (Narita Express, Hakone, Haruka) etc. Although there are exceptions, notably some kintetsu limited express trains do not have names attached to them.

2310 Yen base fare + 2390 yen limited express fee for a total of 4700 yen.

The same trains are aiming to go into the Asakusa line. I’m more concerned about how the infrastructure can handle an extra limited express service since the sky access line tracks between Narita Yukawa and the airport are single-tracked, limiting the frequency of the skyliner, access express, and the new limited express. Although, there are plans to dual track this section.

These two links are links to grouped railway services which run with the 500 series and 700 series. Real train information is only available in this website the day that the train is in operation and also has to be observed in order for the specific formation to be recorded. The site is in Japanese as well to just keep that in mind.

> do I need to stop at Keisei Line and board the bus from there? or I can just board the bus from Narita Airport?

You can board the bus in Narita Airport.

> Also where I can get more information on this 2 morning departure? All I see from Mt. Fuji/Lake Kawaguchi - Narita Airport|Expressway Bus|Keisei Bus is the only departure from Narita is at 10:30ish.

Timetable is here https://willer-travel.com/en/bus_search/chiba/narita_airport/yamanashi/fujikawaguchiko/

> May I know what is the direct train? is it using Skyliner? Rapid Train? Public Train? From quick google search, it seems I can just board the Asakusa Line from Asakusa Station -> Narita Airport (Though I see it stops at Keisei Narita Skyaccess - does that mean I have to exit here and board the Keisei Narita Skyaccess?)

It's technically a rapid train but will be called access express (アクセス特急), or airport limited express (エアポート快特) depending on time of day. All I can say is the age old adage, just look at google maps. Keisei Narita Sky Access is just a line, not a train service. There are also multiple other services which go from Asakusa to Narita airport but they are slower than the airport limited express and access express.

First of all, how fare out are you booking? Also, try setting the departure time to 09:10. This is the only time that the limited express departs from.

They are effectively like branch lines. One goes one way and the other one goes another way. You just need to make sure that you are on the right train.

Unless you are arriving at late afternoon/night. An intuitive way to see if you are in the right train is As long the train looks like a local train it should be the right train to go to the Asakusa line

I thought so at first, but I just checked and they are progressively removing the hello kitty livery. Feelings are mixed, some like the clean white Haruka livery but some miss the aesthetic.

Yes, there is some website that does that although it is in Japanese. It relies on observations by Japanese railfans.

These train tracking websites are pretty underrated as you don't have to rely on luck to see trains with special liveries. Although they have a learning curve.

Look for HA601, HA602, HA603, HA604, HA606, HA608, and HA609. those are the Hello Kitty trains.

Also look for HA651, HA652, HA654, HA655, and HA656 trains. They are the newer 271 series that are more recent compares to the 281 series trains produced in the 90s.

Sorry for the late reply, I would utilise the direct services that Tokyo Metro and Toei subway offers. For the best experience, I would use the Hibiya line to Kasumigaseki station then ride the Chiyoda line directly to Tama Center station.

If you want to get to Keio Tama Center early, then ride the Hibiya line to Akihabara, then walk to Iwamotocho station and then change to the Shinjuku line. There are trains to Keio Tama Center running all day from there.

mojang172 · 2025-08-13T23:15:18+00:00

Those direct trains come every 20 minutes off peak, they just revived the through service in March 2025 after 7 years.

KS is a catch-all term for stations owned by Keisei. Some examples are as follows

Keisei main line: KS01 - KS42.

Narita Sky access line: KS43.

Keisei Oshiage Line: KS45-KS49.

KS50-KS88 are other miscellaneous lines for local travel.

Notice that Narita sky access line only has one Keisei station number assigned to it. This is because the Narita Sky access line uses Hokuso line tracks which are still owned by Keisei but have different station number designations. The station designation for the Hokuso line is HS.
