From a rail transit perspective, it is interesting how much attention has been paid to the seamless integration with rail. Specially for Newark Airport, it calls for moving the Central Concourse with checkin and baggage facilities to be collocated with the vastly expanded new rail station a little further south (west) of the current station, with APM connecting to six gate area modules. This will make EWR similar to Shanghai or Frankfurt airports.
Here is the new proposed layout of Newark Airport:
Anyway, thought some here might be interested.
