              3 dead, over 180 injured after M7.4 quake hits northeastern Japan

              A powerful magnitude 7.4 earthquake off northeastern Japan late Wednesday left three people dead and more than 180 injured across 12 prefectures, and caused a high-speed shinkansen to derail. A Tohoku Shinkansen bullet train derailed between Fukushima Station and Shiroishizao Station, but all 78 passengers and crew members aboard were unharmed, according to East Japan Railway Co. JR East subsequently halted the operation of bullet trains between Nasushiobara Station and Morioka Station, and whether it can resume from next week remains unclear. The operator added that the bullet train service between Fukushima and Sendai stations running in that section is unlikely to resume within this month, pending restoration work. Shiroishizao Station is located between the two.
