what track is airtrain "all terminals" in terminal 4
My wife's arriving terminal 4 on Monday and she needs to take the airtrain from term 4 to terminal 5. She doesn't speak or read very good english so I want a foolproof way to get her on the train so she can't get lost.
What track is the "all terminals" airtrain in terminal 4? I realize that there are probably shorter ways to get from 4 to 5 but I would rather be safe. The worst that can happen is that she goes in a circle if she misses 5/6.
I think it's track 2 but not sure. Also, is it color coded?

I'll be grateful.
