The MARC trains (run by the state of Maryland) from BWI to Union Station in DC only run weekdays (you can use AMTRAK on the weekends, but I seem to recall that's about $17 one way). I've used MARC a number of times and it works out really well. You take the free shuttle from BWI to the airport AMTRAK station, a quick 5 minute drive. It's about a 45 minute train trip. You can buy your rail ticket from touch screen kiosks or at the ticket window once you are there.
