The question is "what airports have "mainline" railroad(way) stations
"attached" to airport's - there may not be that many. Forget about "near",
bus conx., barts, subways etc.. As for Google, sure you can get 10000
hits of useless info. - who has the time to go thru all that stuff" - the
question
was directed to this list - "the experts"...or those who may be familiar
with
the facilities, at a particular airport.
