Yamanote Line and Keihin-Tohoku Line Major Suspension on April 19-20: Caution for Weekend Outings
JR East has started to implement slower train operations on parts of the Tokaido, Chuo, and Ito Lines due to the announcement of a Nankai Trough Earthquake Emergency Information (Major Earthquake Alert).
The sections subject to reduced speed operation are the Tokaido Line (between Hiratsuka and Atami stations), the Ito Line (between Atami and Ito stations), and the Chuo Line (between Otsuki and Chino stations). This may result in delays and possible suspensions of service on the Tokaido Line, Shonan Shinjuku Line, Ueno Tokyo Line, Ito Line, and Chuo Line.
Should the Nankai Trough Earthquake Emergency Information (Major Earthquake Alert) be lifted and the safety of train operations be confirmed, normal speed operations will resume.
