You would think that the people you mention would benefit, BUT:
I use the Princeton Junction station. The trip to the new airport station will take 45 minutes and makes 10 stops. It takes me 25 minutes to drive to the train station from my home. There is virtually no parking availabe between 7AM and 4PM due to commuters. If there is a spot the cost is $3.00 a day. What happens if my flight is late into EWR arriving after the last train south (2AM). I can sit at the airport for 3 hours. (After 10 PM, there is just one train per hour) .This just does not sound attractive to me, as an alternative to a 50 minute drive to the airport from my home.
