But they would be awkward if you have more than a carry on. The only time I took a train from an airport was in Amsterdam and those trains were designed to accommodate luggage and people and that worked well. It was also a lot cheaper than a taxi.
I've taken the train in from Narita (to Tokyo) and it is similarly set up more like the old long-distance trains with baggage areas in each car than the short-distancers like, say, Paris' RER. Or subway, like London's Underground (though those cars are similarly adapted for their luggage-heavy use).
Come to think of it, Narita to Shinagawa's only 20km shorter than Waterloo to YYZ (by car)...
