They would have also needed to increase the frequency significantly (during the middle of the night and on weekends, it can be once every 20-30 minutes!)
The proper comparison would not be to SEPTA service at PHL but rather Tube and Express service at LHR.

I meant to type 60mi, not 60km. And yes, at 60mi (or 70mi) one could certainly do a fast train. But, as I said, that would take political will.

The terminals are ok, but certainly not world class. No airside transport. Vehicle traffic about the terminals is, well, ugly - not to mention inefficient.
