  Narita Rapid Railway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The project involves the refurbishment of 32.3 km of existing track on the Hokuso Line and the Chiba New Town Line, as well as the construction of 19.1 km of new track to Narita Airport, partly using disused rights of way originally planned for the cancelled Narita Shinkansen project.
There are also plans to build a spur from the Toei Asakusa Line to Tokyo Station, opening a (potentially) faster route from Tokyo Station to the airport through the Keisei Oshiage Line.
The line will be constructed using standard gauge (1435mm) tracks, as this is the gauge used by the existing networks which it will connect to.

Shinbashi is the original terminus of Japan's first stretch of railway, the Tōkaidō Main Line, and is one of Japan's oldest stations (the oldest station being Shinagawa a few kilometres down the line).
With the extension of the Tōkaidō Main Line along the modern-day route to the new terminus at Tokyo Station, the original station structure was demolished to make way for a goods yard (汐留駅, Shiodome Station).
This in turn fell into disuse during the 1980s and has only recently been redeveloped as a commercial district with a number of large office blocks.
