Eustace and Jill

In this case, I don't think the bodies _were_ absent on Earth; I think that God/Aslan actually generated duplicate bodies for Eustace and Jill for the time they were to be active in Narnia with Tirian; all then being what some call "raptured" as they passed through the Stable.

No time on Earth passes when you go to Narnia. We already know that. If Jill and Eustace went back from Narnia, they would be on the train and it would crash.

Aslan pulled them out a split second before they were killed. They got a chance to live a bit more in Narnia until they left, which was when they entered the stable. In the stable was the beginning of the spirit world. They left Narnia, but because they immediately died, their spirit entered the stable away from the Shadowlands.

Peter and Ed and Lucy and everyone else died in our world so their bodies were at the train depot. But Eustace and Jill died in Narnia at the End of that world so they would have retained their bodies. Oh well I guess this another case of me overthinking situations like the threads I did when I first joined where people decided that it had no bearing on the story.

No, Eustace and Jill died on Earth with the others, in the instant of being translated into Narnia. They didn't die in the Last Battle (the battle, not the book) but were thrown into the stable - the Calormenes thought that was an instant death sentence, but it wasn't.
