Philadelphia Airport to the train station

Anyone know how close the train station is to the Philadelphia airport? Going to Atlantic City from Syracuse NY and there are no flights even with a stop over that are a good option into ACY. The train from PHL to ACY is only $10 so flying into PHL and taking train the rest of the way seems like a good option.
Anyone know is this is easily done?
Thanks!

Thanks. I did see there were a lot of options getting from PHL to ACY. Just wondering how easy it is to get from the PHL airport to the train station.

Dukey1 - what is septa? A train from the airport? Sorry if that should be obvious. I am very unfamiliar with PHL.

The trains are across the street from baggage claim via pedestrian bridges.
Of all the airport-to-city rail connections I have ever used this has to be one of the easiest.

You can always "live a little" and get a private car service transfer to the casinos I am certain.

What comment was removed? I think it might have been mine even. All I sad was I like the idea of the private car service.
Spam? #3?
