Shuttle bus takes you from the airport to the station, and it's about 40 minutes (I think!) to Union Station in DC. You should be able to figure your trip times and costs on Amtrak's website.

I would not do the bus via Greenbelt--a change, and a long time on transit make it completely unappealing.

Coming in from DTW. CP Hamilton or HI Capital are the two at the top of the list for this trip.

Going into DCA seems better and better given the reviews from BWI. Plus, I have done that trip many, many times. At one point in time I would leave dry cleaning and dress shirts at the laundry on Friday and pick up Monday after work.
