mauld;
That website would seem to tell the story although in Italy things are always ~slightly~ different than they are supposed to be. If you take the train to termini you can check the schedule for departing trains which is posted everywhere. I think it's only very early/late that the schedule is different than that website says.
That fare to/from FCO is generally about $40-$70 taxi or car service, but they are very "creative" over there (standard disclaimer-- 99% of Italian Cab driver are honest...blah,blah,blah) For that and other reasons the train is the ONLY way to go.
You know why?? Rome is one of the most wonderful places on earth.. really. And I like seeing little bits of it at a time. AND, since I am a CO person (mauld too) FCO is a natural airport to fly through if you are going to many other places (in Italy and out (Greece, Turkey)) Mastering the FCO-Termini train makes Rome so accessible for any stopover that lasts longer than say 6 hours. I love that. They have both "left luggage" at FCO and baggage lockers at Termini so taking a quick jaunt into Rome is only $8 and 30 minutes away and couldn't be easier. Delightful.
BTW, make sure you go to the front of the cab line outside Termini-- the cab drivers are pretty creative there too!
I know a great tour guide there if you are interested. -jp
