I will take a train too. Please also allow time to buy (or even pick up a ticket for a foreigner). "Gate" closes about 5 minutes prior to departure and train usually leaves about 1-2 minutes EARLY.
That's what OP posted...business class on train. First/business on plane.
If you haven't ever ridden this train....I would take the train for the experience.
