JAL 747 in Narita?

There is a 747-400 freighter in JAL colors parked next to us in Narita with an N number. N402AL Just curious what the story is? The rest of there airplanes seem to have J numbers.

JAL is parting with their 747-400's. Suspect that one may have found a new home and just waiting for a paint job.

ABC has V tail numbers. Why would Wells Fargo lease to a Russian Airline?

I don't know I only saw the one with an N number on it. All though most of there J numbered airplanes seemed to sit a lot. Actually I don't recall a JAL 747-400 freighter moving will I was here for 3 weeks.
