Does anyone know if the Eurail station is attached to the airport or do I have to go into the city to get on it? Please let me know! Thanks!

Zuerich Airport is a fantastic place. Yes, the rail station is IN the airport.

It takes about 12 minutes to get to the HB in the city center where you can access trains to the rest of Europe. Pick up the train directly underground at the airport for 6 USD.

It is in fact right there - just cross the street and you're in the train station. The people at the ticket booths all speak good English. It's as user-friendly as you could imagine, and watching the luggage carts on the escalator is truly amazing.

The Zurich airport train station is directly beneath the airport itself. You take the escalator up to the shops area and then route yourself to your particular airport check-in area. Note that you want the Zurich Flughafen stop and not the Zurich HB stop. The Zurich HB stop is downtown and about 10 minutes from the Flughafen stop. If you are landing in Europe, just escalator (or elevator) down to the train station and the EU awaits you. You might change trains here and there but you can begin your journey just beneath the airport.

The station in Zürich is a Swiss Rail (SBB) station.
Eurail is not a rail company. It is just a company formed by national rail companies in Europe for the purpose of selling rail passes.
And, yes, trains run frequently from the airport to the Zürich Hbf. For most connections, you would have to change trains in Zürich.
