Test runs of airport express trains were carried out between Sendai Airport and Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture, on Sunday. The tracks and the terminal were destroyed by the March 11th earthquake and tsunami.
Sendai Airport Transit says full services will resume on Saturday, October 1st.
The control center has been moved to the second floor after the first floor of the building was flooded.
In Sunday's tests, trains made 4 round trips between Mitazono Station in Natori City and the airport terminal. Company officials checked to see if there were any irregular vibrations at speeds of up to 110 kilometers per hour.
The operator plans to offer the regular number of daily 40 round trips between Sendai Station and the airport from next Saturday.
