AFP Slideshow: Strong Earthquake Hits Japan Two runways at Narita International Airport near Tokyo were closed for checks but soon reopened, public broadcaster NHK said. Some high speed bullet train lines experienced minor delays because power stopped briefly, and some local lines were halted. Officials warned of possible aftershocks and landslides. A nuclear reactor in Tokaimura, about 68 miles northeast of Tokyo, was operating normally, NHK said. The focus of the quake, which struck at 7:22 a.m. (1822 EDT), was about 37 mile below the earth's surface in Chiba prefecture, east of Tokyo, the Japan Meteorological Agency said.
