Is there a train station at the Barcelona airport? If not, what is the best way to get from the airport to the train station? How long does it take?

Yes, there is now a train station departing from Terminal 2 of Barcelona airport, serving Sants, P. Gracia, and Franca train stations in a half hour or less. See the end of Barcelona chapter in any of Rick's books covering that city, as well as the airport web site. If you arrive at Terminal 1, you can take the airport shuttle bus to T2.
The Aerobus can take you from either terminal to Placa Catalunya and Placa Espanya, both served by metro, and walkable several blocks to P. Gracia or Sants train stations, respectively; see Google Maps for locations.
