   Thank you, John. Always a pleasure.  That page does answer the   
   64 bit question - what happens within EWR; the "Amtrak" bus does   
   the circuit of the terminals. Further, they leave every 10 minutes   
   or so, vice every 60.   
      
   I took the #62 once; it's hardly speedy.   
      
   He's booked the 7:30 AM train from NCR; he could have likely chosen from   
   a wider variety of WAS or BWI->NWK trains but this will do.
