Description: The railstation at Newark International airport. I ended up here after my plane from Atlanta to Amsterdam had to return to a US airport because of a technical malfunction. By what we were told, Newark International had the best conditions to land. As it took 24 hours before we could leave again, I went to Manhattan for a few hours on Saturday April 9th, 2005.
